N2 - The Coulomb dissociation reaction 208Pb(14O, 13N p)208Pb was measured at Ein = 87.5 MeV/u to determine the radiative width Γγ of the 1- state in 14O at Eex = 5.17 MeV. This state dominates the radiative capture process 13N(p, γ) 14O, a key reaction in the hot CNO cycle of hydrogen burning in stars. We have deduced Γγ = 3.1 ± 0.6 eV with the help of a coupled channel calculation. The validity of the technique was confirmed in the case of the 208Pb(13N, 12C p)208Pb reaction exciting the 1 2+ state in 13N whose width is known.
