Abstract
Measuring nuclear reactions of astrophysical interest at the relevant energies is not always possible on the Earth’s surface because of the cosmic-ray background that dominates the spectra. The LUNA collaboration exploits the low-background environment of Gran Sasso National Laboratory to study these reactions at or close to the Gamow peak. The status is summarized in this contribution.
