Nucleosynthesis in Core-Collapse Supernovae and GRB--Metal-Poor Star Connection [PDF]
We review the nucleosynthesis yields of core-collapse supernovae (SNe) for various stellar masses, explosion energies, and metallicities. Comparison with the abundance patterns of metal-poor stars provides excellent opportunities to test the explosion ...

The bulk mineralogy, elemental composition, and water content of the Winchcombe CM chondrite fall
Abstract On the microscale, the Winchcombe CM carbonaceous chondrite contains a number of lithological units with a variety of degrees of aqueous alteration. However, an understanding of the average hydration state is useful when comparing to other meteorites and remote observations of airless bodies.

PUSHing Core-Collapse Supernovae to Explosions in Spherical Symmetry: Nucleosynthesis Yields [PDF]
Core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) are the extremely energetic deaths of massive stars. They play a vital role in the synthesis and dissemination of many heavy elements in the universe.

Heavy Elements and Electromagnetic Transients from Neutron Star Mergers
Astro‐(physics) has made major leaps forward through the combined information provided by both gravitational waves and electromagnetic emission from the first detected neutron star merger event. This review provides an up‐to‐date overview of today's understanding of neutron star mergers and their electromagnetic emission and it discusses possible ...

Abstract The nucleosynthetic Cr isotope anomalies provides useful information to trace the source and origin of extraterrestrial samples, but it is usually influenced by high‐energy cosmic rays, and evaluating such effect of cosmic rays in lunar samples is especially important.

Nuclear astrophysicists at war
The Manhattan program not only opened the path to the nuclear age for humans, but also triggered a lot of new questions and research directions in nuclear physics and astrophysics that still inform the ideas in these fields today. Abstract The question of energy production in stars stimulated an entire generation of young physicists in the 1930s who ...

Nucleosynthesis Predictions and High-Precision Deuterium Measurements
Two new high-precision measurements of the deuterium abundance from absorbers along the line of sight to the quasar PKS1937–1009 were presented. The absorbers have lower neutral hydrogen column densities (N(HI) ≈ 18 cm − 2 ) than for previous ...

Fluorine is one of the most interesting elements in nuclear astrophysics. Its abundance can provide important hints to constrain the stellar models since fluorine production and destruction are strictly connected to the physical conditions inside the ...
