The contribution of the {sup 18}F(p,{gamma}) reaction to the production of {sup 19}Ne which is the crucial isotope for the breakout from the hot CNO cycle into the rp process, has been investigated in experiments with {sup 18}F beams. Measurements of the cross sections for the {sup 18}F(p,{alpha}){sup 15}O and the {sup 18}F(p,{gamma}){sup 19}Ne reactions indicate that the contribution from the (p,{gamma}) route to the formation of {sup 19}Ne is small.
