Abstract
We discuss results and future plans for low-energy reactions that play an important role in current nuclear astrophysics research and that happen to concentrate around the region of A=7A=7. The 7Be(p,γ)8B and the 3He(4He,γ)7Be reactions are crucial for understanding the solar-neutrino oscillation phenomenon and the latter one plays a central role in the issue of cosmic 7Li abundance and big-bang nucleosynthesis. We also present results regarding the host dependence of the half-life of the electron-capture 7Be radio-nuclide.
