  Explosive hydrogen burning in type I X-ray bursts (XRBs) comprise charged
particle reactions creating isotopes with masses up to A~100. Since charged
particle reactions in a stellar environment are very temperature sensitive, we
use a realistic time-dependent general relativistic and self-consistent model
of type I x-ray bursts to provide accurate values of the burst temperatures and
densities. This allows a detailed and accurate time-dependent identification of
the reaction flow from the surface layers through the convective region and the
ignition region to the neutron star ocean. Using this, we determine the
relative importance of specific nuclear reactions in the X-ray burst.
