Theoretical prediction of surface stellar abundances of light elements–lithium, beryllium, and boron–represents one of the most interesting open problems in astrophysics.

Evolution and Nucleosynthesis of Metal-Free Massive Stars [PDF]
We calculate presupernova evolutions and supernova explosions of massive stars (M=13-25 Mo) for various metallicities. We find the following characteristic abundance patterns of nucleosynthesis in the metal-free (Pop III) stars.

Abstract An attractive flower from the island of Madagascar has in part saved the lives of thousands of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Random mutations and alterations to the genome led to the evolution of genes encoding enzymes, which would provide the periwinkle flower an arsenal of secondary metabolites to survive within the ...

Neutrinos and Primordial Nucleosynthesis
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 ...

No crisis for big bang nucleosynthesis [PDF]
Contrary to a recent claim, the inferred primordial abundances of the light elements are quite consistent with the expectations from standard big bang nucleosynthesis when attention is restricted to direct observations rather than results from chemical evolution models.

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

Key Points Corrected for the Earth's magnetic field, the SHRIMP's IMF depends on the mineral species, not the chemical composition. The IMF arises from the force constant difference between "hard" and "soft" bonds, which is characteristic of each mineral. This permitted the calculation of IMF‐correction factors for most common Mg‐bearing minerals.

Carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars: a window on AGB nucleosynthesis and binary evolution. II. Statistical analysis of a sample of 67 CEMP-$s$ stars [PDF]
Many observed CEMP stars are found in binary systems and show enhanced abundances of $s$-elements. The origin of the chemical abundances of these CEMP-$s$ stars is believed to be accretion in the past of enriched material from a primary star in the AGB ...
