abstract
The strength of the $E_{\rm p} = 1.842$ MeV resonance in the $^{40}$Ca(p,$\gamma$)$^{41}$Sc reaction is determined with two different methods: First, by an absolute strength measurement using calcium hydroxide targets, and second, relative to the well-determined strength of the resonance triplet at $E_\alpha$ = 4.5 MeV in the $^{40}$Ca($\alpha$,$\gamma$)$^{44}$Ti reaction. The present new value of $\omega\gamma=(0.192\pm0.017)$ eV is 37% (equivalent to $3.5\sigma$) higher than the evaluated literature value. In addition, the ratio of the strengths of the 1.842 MeV $^{40}$Ca(p,$\gamma$)$^{41}$Sc and 4.5 MeV $^{40}$Ca($\alpha$,$\gamma$)$^{44}$Ti resonances has been determined to be $0.0229\pm0.0018$. The newly corrected strength of the 1.842-MeV resonance can be used in the future as a normalization point for experiments with calcium targets.

Background in $\gamma$-ray detectors and carbon beam tests in the Felsenkeller shallow-underground accelerator laboratory
The Felsenkeller shallow-underground laboratory achieves gamma-ray backgrounds low enough, and carbon beam currents high enough, to make a sensitive measurement of carbon-12(alpha,gamma)oxygen-16 appear feasible.
