Design study of a HPGe detector array for β-decay investigation in laboratory ECR plasmas

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
In the frame of the PANDORA project, a new experimental approach aims at measuring in-plasma β-decay rate as a function of thermodynamical conditions of the environment, namely a laboratory magnetized plasma able to mimic some stellar-like conditions ...

Insights into AGB Nucleosynthesis Thanks to Spectroscopic Abundance Measurements in Intrinsic and Extrinsic Stars

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
The foundations of stellar nucleosynthesis have been established more than 70 years ago. Since then, much progress has been made, both on the theoretical side, with stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis models of increasing complexity, using more and ...

Mixing Uncertainties in Low-Metallicity AGB Stars: The Impact on Stellar Structure and Nucleosynthesis

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
The slow neutron-capture process (s-process) efficiency in low-mass AGB stars (1.5 < M/M⊙ < 3) critically depends on how mixing processes in stellar interiors are handled, which is still affected by considerable uncertainties.

Isomers in the Cosmos

open access: yesAtoms, 2023
The nucleosynthesis of chemical elements has been established to be the result of a variety of different types of nuclear reactions in stars. Under the extreme temperatures and densities encountered in such environments, nuclear isomers can be populated ...

Kinetics of the tautomerization of thioimidic acids R−C(SH)NH → R−C(S)NH2: For R = H, F, HO, CN, NC, H2N, HC(O), HC(S), HC≡ C, CH3, CF3, H2C=CH, HOCH2, H2NCH2,CH3C(O), C2H5, (CH3)2CH, C6H5

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 731-742, November 2023., 2023
Abstract The kinetics of the tautomerization of thio‐imidic acids RC(SH)NH were determined at low (50–300 K) and high (500–1500 K) temperatures as R was varied to encompass mono‐ and diatomic species H, F, HO, NC, CN through H2N, HC(O), HC(S), HC≡ C, H3C, F3C, HOCH2, H2C=CH, CH3C(O), H2NCH2 and including ethyl, isopropyl and phenyl groups. The presence

Ar+ ArH+ Reactive Collisions of Astrophysical Interest: The Case of 36Ar

open access: yesChemPhysChem, Volume 24, Issue 20, October 17, 2023., 2023
A complete theoretical investigation of the 36Ar+36ArH+ reactive collision involving the most abundant Argon isotope in the interstellar medium. Abstract The reactive collision between 36Ar and the 36ArH+ species has been investigated by means of quantum mechanical (QM), quasiclassical trajectories (QCT) and statistical quantum mechanical (SQM ...

Inhomogeneous Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis in Light of Recent Observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
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 ...

Ab Initio Thermodynamics Calculation of Beta Decay Rates

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 535, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Beta‐decay half‐lives are calculated ab initio from thermodynamics, independently of any quantum mechanics. The calculated values are close to those experimentally observed. Abstract Beta‐decay half‐lives for the free neutron, for 6He and 8He, and for 8Li are calculated ab initio from geometrical thermodynamics arguments, independently of any quantum ...

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.

Kilonova Emission and Heavy Element Nucleosynthesis

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
The binary neutron star merger observed and localized on 17 August 2017 by the LIGO and Virgo gravitational interferometers and by numerous telescopes on the ground and in orbit linked in an unambiguous way the coalescence of double neutron stars with ...
