The NuGrid AGB Evolution and Nucleosynthesis Data Set
Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars play a key role in the chemical evolution of galaxies. These stars are the fundamental stellar site for the production of light elements such as C, N and F, and half of the elements heavier than Fe via the slow neutron

Núcleos exóticos e síntese dos elementos químicos
We have around ninety chemical elements available in nature, which were produced mainly by nuclear reactions inside stars. The fusion reactions are the main synthesis process which generates the light and intermediate masses elements.

Structure formation cosmic rays: Identifying observational constraints [PDF]
Shocks that arise from baryonic in-fall and merger events during the structure formation are believed to be a source of cosmic rays. These "structure formation cosmic rays" (SFCRs) would essentially be primordial in composition, namely, mostly made of ...

Inhomogeneous Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis in Light of Recent Observations [PDF]
We consider inhomogeneous big bang nucleosynthesis in light of the present observational situation. Different observations of He-4 and D disagree with each other, and depending on which set of observations one uses, the estimated primordial He-4 ...

Magellanic Clouds Cepheids: Thorium Abundances [PDF]
The analysis of the high-resolution spectra of 31 Magellanic Clouds Cepheid variables enabled the identification of thorium lines. The abundances of thorium were found with spectrum synthesis method. The calculated thorium abundances exhibit correlations

Screening Effects in Stars and in the Laboratory
Nuclear reactions are the driver of the evolution of many astrophysical objects. In the astrophysical environment their respective reaction rates are, however, modified due to the presence of other charges.

R-Process with Magnetized Nuclei at Dynamo-Explosive Supernovae and Neutron Star Mergers
Nucleosynthesis at latge magnetic induction levels relevant to core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers is considered. For respective magnetic fields of a strength up to ten teratesla, atomic nuclei exhibit a linear magnetic response due to the ...

Indirect Measurements of n- and p-Induced Reactions of Astrophysical Interest on Oxygen Isotopes
Observations of abundances and isotopic ratio determinations in stars yield powerful constraints on stellar models. In particular, the oxygen isotopic ratios are of particular interest because they are affected not only by nucleosynthesis but also by ...

s-Processing in Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars in the Light of Revised Neutron-Capture Cross Sections
Current AGB stellar models provide an adequate description of the s-process nucleosynthesis that occurs. Nonetheless, they still suffer from many uncertainties related to the modeling of the 13C pocket formation and the adopted nuclear reaction rates ...
