Structure formation cosmic rays: Identifying observational constraints [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2005 Shocks that arise from baryonic in-fall and merger events during the structure formation are believed to be a source of cosmic rays. These "structure formation cosmic rays" (SFCRs) would essentially be primordial in composition, namely, mostly made of ...

Following Fission Products in Explosive Astrophysical Environments [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 The astrophysical process by which the heaviest elements are formed in the universe is known as the rapid neutron capture process, or r process, of nucleosynthesis.

Big bang nucleosynthesis [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1999 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.

The NuGrid AGB Evolution and Nucleosynthesis Data Set
Universe, 2022 Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars play a key role in the chemical evolution of galaxies. These stars are the fundamental stellar site for the production of light elements such as C, N and F, and half of the elements heavier than Fe via the slow neutron

Impact of AGB Stars on the Chemical Evolution of Neutron-Capture Elements
Universe, 2022 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 ...

Nucleosynthesis in the Early Galaxy [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2007 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
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2020 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 ...
