The reaction was measured for the first time at astrophysically relevant energies in an in-beam experiment at the high-efficiency HPGe 
-ray spectrometer HORUS at the University of Cologne. To determine total cross sections of the reaction, proton beams at six different energies between E
= 
and 
were provided by a 10 MV FN tandem accelerator, spanning nearly the entire Gamow window relevant for the astrophysical -process. These total experimentally obtained cross sections were then compared to calculations performed using the talys 2.0 code. In comparison, the measured total cross-sections are found to be lower than those predicted by different models used as input parameters for the talys 2.0 code for 
to
