Following nuclei through nucleosynthesis: a novel tracing technique [PDF]
Astrophysical nucleosynthesis is a family of diverse processes by which atomic nuclei undergo nuclear reactions and decays to form new nuclei. The complex nature of nucleosynthesis, which can involve as many as tens of thousands of interactions between thousands of nuclei, makes it difficult to study any one of these interactions in isolation using ...

The Nuclear Astrophysics program at n_TOF (CERN)
An important experimental program on Nuclear Astrophysics is being carried out at the n_TOF since several years, in order to address the still open issues in stellar and primordial nucleosynthesis.

Impact of AGB Stars on the Chemical Evolution of Neutron-Capture Elements
In this review, we discuss the impact of s-process nucleosynthesis in asymptotic giant branch stars on the enrichment of heavy elements. We review the main steps made on this subject in the last 40 years and discuss the importance of modelling the ...

Nuclear Reactions For Nucleosynthesis Beyond Fe [PDF]
Many more nuclear transitions have to be known in the determination of stellar reactivities for trans-iron nucleosynthesis than for reactions of light nuclei. This requires different theoretical and experimental approaches. Some of the issues specific for trans-iron nucleosynthesis are discussed.

Nucleosynthesis in the Early Galaxy [PDF]
Recent observations of r-process-enriched metal-poor star abundances reveal a non-uniform abundance pattern for elements $Z\leq47$. Based on non-correlation trends between elemental abundances as a function of Eu-richness in a large sample of metal-poor stars, it is shown that the mixing of a consistent and robust light element primary process (LEPP ...

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 ...

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

This article provides a review of the present status of research in nucleosynthesis, with emphasis on problems of nucleosynthesis in stellar and supernova environments. The authors begin by surveying abundance patterns in the Sun, our galaxy and other galaxies, calling attention to the manner in which such data serve to guide and to restrict ...

Big bang nucleosynthesis [PDF]
The concordance of standard big bang nucleosynthesis theory and the related observations of the light element isotopes (including some new higher \he4 abundances) will be reviewed. Implications of BBN on chemical evolution, dark matter and constraints on particle properties will be discussed.
