Heavy Elements and Electromagnetic Transients from Neutron Star Mergers

Annalen der Physik, Volume 536, Issue 2, February 2024.
Astro‐(physics) has made major leaps forward through the combined information provided by both gravitational waves and electromagnetic emission from the first detected neutron star merger event. This review provides an up‐to‐date overview of today's understanding of neutron star mergers and their electromagnetic emission and it discusses possible ...

Challenges in nucleosynthesis of trans-iron elements

AIP Advances, 2014
Nucleosynthesis beyond Fe poses additional challenges not encountered when studying astrophysical processes involving light nuclei. Astrophysical sites and conditions are not well known for some of the processes involved.

Gamma-ray line emission from OB associations and young open clusters

, 1999
OB associations and young open clusters constitute the most prolific nucleosynthesis sites in our Galaxy. The combined activity of stellar winds and core-collapse supernovae ejects significant amounts of freshly synthesised nuclei into the interstellar ...

Modeling of Cosmogenic Cr Isotopes Produced in Lunar Rocks Compared With Existing Calculations and Measurements

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 129, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract The nucleosynthetic Cr isotope anomalies provides useful information to trace the source and origin of extraterrestrial samples, but it is usually influenced by high‐energy cosmic rays, and evaluating such effect of cosmic rays in lunar samples is especially important.

A mechanism to account for well known peculiarities of low mass AGB star nucleosynthesis

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
We present here the application of a model for a mass circulation mechanism induced by the stellar magnetic field to study peculiar aspects of AGB star nucleosynthesis. The mixing scheme is based on a previously suggested magnetic-buoyancy process [1, 2]

The effect of 12C + 12C rate uncertainties on the evolution and nucleosynthesis of massive stars

, 2012
[Shortened] The 12C + 12C fusion reaction has been the subject of considerable experimental efforts to constrain uncertainties at temperatures relevant for stellar nucleosynthesis.

Evolution of Massive Population III Stars

Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
While the evolution of massive stars in the local Universe is dominated by mass-loss, the evolution of massive Population III stars should be dominated by rotation.

Stellar Mixing and s-PROCESS Nucleosynthesis

The Astrophysical Journal, 1977
A model for the operation of the s-process is studied in which neutron capture occurs only in a thin layer at the bottom of a deep convective envelope. Simultaneous convective mixing and neutron capture are described by means of diffusion equations. We find that this model admits abundance distributions which resemble the solar system distribution, but
