Nucleosynthesis and Kilonovae from Strange Star Mergers

open access: yesUniverse, 2019
In this talk, we summarize the work in progress toward a full characterization of strange star−strange star (SS−SS) mergers related to the GW/GRB/kilonova events.

Calcium Isotope Evolution During Differentiation of Vesta and Calcium Isotopic Heterogeneities in the Inner Solar System

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 50, Issue 4, 28 February 2023., 2023
Abstract We employed MC‐ICP‐MS to measure the mass‐dependent Ca isotope compositions of Vesta‐related meteorites. Eucrites and diogenites show distinct Ca isotope compositions, which is caused by crystallization of isotopically heavy orthopyroxene. The Ca isotope data support a model where the two lithologies are linked, where the diogenites, mainly ...

Positron Transport and Annihilation in the Galactic Bulge

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
The annihilation of positrons in the Milky Way Galaxy has been observed for ∼50 years; however, the production sites of these positrons remains hard to identify.

QUÍMICA ESTELAR E ESTRELAS APOCALÍPTICAS: ESTUDO COMPARATIVO

open access: yesColloquium Exactarum, 2012
All atoms existing in the Universe, except Hydrogen (H) and helium (He), arise from processes occurring in stars and their evolution. The stars transmute the H and He in other heavier elements through nuclear fusion and its process rolling, filling and ...

The Evolution and Explosion of Massive Stars. II. Explosive Hydrodynamics and Nucleosynthesis

open access: yes, 1995
The nucleosynthetic yield of isotopes lighter than A = 66 (zinc) is determined for a grid of stellar masses and metallicities including stars of 11, 12, 13, 15, 18, 19, 20, 22, 25, 30, 35, and 40 M{sub {circle_dot}} and metallicities Z = 0, 10{sup {minus}

Big bang nucleosynthesis: Present status [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) describes the production of the lightest nuclides via a dynamic interplay among the four fundamental forces during the first seconds of cosmic time.

Primordial nucleosynthesis with varying fundamental constants [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
The success of primordial nucleosynthesis as a cornerstone of the hot Big Bang model has been limited by the long-standing lithium problem. Recent work presented a self-consistent perturbative analysis of the effects of variations in nature’s fundamental

Screening Effects in Stars and in the Laboratory

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
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.

Nucleosynthesis in magneto-rotational supernovae [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
We present the nucleosynthesis of magneto-rotational supernovae (MR-SNe) including neutrino-driven and magneto-rotational-driven ejecta based, for the first time, on two-dimensional simulations with accurate neutrino transport. The models analysed here

Experiments probing clustering effects in explosive nucleosynthesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2023
Nuclear clustering affects the nucleosynthesis occurring in a number of astrophysical environments. Highly-clusterized nuclear states typically occur near particle thresholds and therefore can produce dramatic impacts on the nuclear reaction rates.
