The AGATA Demonstrator Array is presently under installation at Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro, Italy, where it will replace the CLARA array at the target position of the PRISMA magnetic spectrometer. In the present contribution, the details of the installation will be reviewed. Preliminary results from the first in-beam commissioning test will be given. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

LUNA, Laboratory for Underground Nuclear Astrophysics at Gran Sasso, is studying thermonuclear reactions down to the energy of the stellar nucleosynthesis. The results obtained will be presented and their impact on the determination of the solar neutrino spectrum and on the measurement of the Sun core metallicity will be discussed.

The lightest nuclei in the A = 130 mass region reachable with stable beams were investigated by using the 40Ca+92Mo fusion-evaporation reaction and the powerful detection system consisting of GASP+ISIS+n-ring at Legnaro (Italy). The level scheme of 122La was established for the first time. The observed rotational bands are compared with the bands observed in the heavier Lanthanum nuclei and possible configuration assignments are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
