Summary:Abstract 13 C(p,γ) 14 N is a key reaction in different stellar environments for which both accurate and precise measurements of its cross section are required to constraint stellar models. This is currently ongoing at the Laboratory for Underground Nuclear Astrophysics where in addition to the low-background environment, the use of different detection systems (HPGe and BGO detectors) and analysis techniques (Peak Shape Analysis and Sum Peak Method) allowed to perform reaction cross section measurements at the lowest energy ever. Both the setup employed in the measurements and the analysis performed are presented in this paper.
