Leptonic Photons and Nucleosynthesis [PDF]
Should $U(1)$ long-range forces be associated to electron, muon and/or tau quantum number then their ''fine structure constants" are seen to be bound by nucleosynthesis data to be less than about $1.7 \times 10^{-11}$.

Neutrino Effects in Nucleosynthesis [PDF]
The nucleosynthesis within a Type II supernova occurs in an intense neutrino flux. I discuss some of the effects associated with neutrino interactions, including direct synthesis in the neutrino process, the role of neutrinos in controlling the r-process

Duration of Nucleosynthesis [PDF]
In a recent Letter on a determination of the age of the elements, Reynolds[1] reported the important discovery of isotopically anomalous xenon in the stony meteorite Richarton. The isotopes which appear to occur in significant excess over atmospheric xenon are Xe128, Xe129, Xe130, and Xe131, with the Xe129 dominant by an order of magnitude.

Neutrinos and Primordial Nucleosynthesis [PDF]
The importance of the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) as a unique tool for studying neutrino properties is discussed, and the recent steps towards a self-consistent and robust handling of the weak reaction decoupling from the thermal bath as well as of ...

Supernova neutrinos and nucleosynthesis [PDF]
Observations of metal-poor stars indicate that at least two different nucleosynthesis sites contribute to the production of r-process elements.

Neutrino nucleosynthesis [PDF]
We study neutrino process nucleosynthesis in massive stars using newly calculated cross sections, an expanded reaction network, and complete and self-consistent models of the progenitor star. We reevaluate the production of light isotopes from abundant progenitors as well as that of rare, heavy, proton-rich isotopes.

Hypernovae and their nucleosynthesis [PDF]
We review the characteristics of nucleosynthesis in ‘hypernovae’, i.e., core-collapse supernovae with very large explosion energies (≳ 1052 ergs). The hypernova yields show the following characteristics: (i) the mass ratio between the complete and incomplete Si burning regions is larger in hypernovae than normal supernovae.

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

Prospect for measurements of (γ, n) reaction cross-sections of p-nuclei at ELI-NP
The gamma beam system under construction at the ELI-NP facility in Romania is projected to give the nuclear physics community access to an experimental system providing a high-intensity, narrow bandwidth photon beam at variable energy.
