Alpha clustering and the stellar nucleosynthesis of carbon [PDF]
The astrophysical S--factor and reaction rates for the triple--alpha process are calculated in the direct--capture model. It is shown that the stellar carbon production is extremely sensitive to small variations in the N--N interaction.

Key Points A method is described to obtain high precision Sn isotope ratios using the double spike technique in geological reference materials containing 0.03 to 7 μg g−1 of Sn. δ122/118Sn values are reported for sixteen geological RMs. Improved precision was achieved compared with previous studies by using low concentration Sn analyte.

The s-process in stellar sites
Stars are marvellous caldrons where all the elements of the Universe (apartfrom hydrogen and helium) have been synthesized. The solar system chemical distri-butionis the result of many pollution episodes from already extinct stellar generations, occurred

Models of primordial and hyper-metal-poor stars with masses similar to the Sun experience an ingestion of protons into the hot core during the core helium flash phase at the end of their red giant branch evolution.

Galactic annihilation emission from nucleosynthesis positrons [PDF]
The Galaxy hosts a widespread population of low-energy positrons revealed by successive generations of gamma-ray telescopes through a bright annihilation emission from the bulge region, with a fainter contribution from the inner disk. The exact origin of

Key Points Isotopic reference materials are rarely cross‐examined. An optimised regression model and MC‐ICP‐MS offer a cost‐effective way to assess the reliability of values assigned to multi‐isotope reference materials. A significant lack of consistency has been observed in the long‐standing isotopic reference materials for nickel and zinc. Calibrated

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 ...

Current quests in nucleosynthesis: present and future neutron-induced reaction measurements
We present some open questions in nucleosynthesis focused on the measurement of relevant neutron capture cross-sections and on new experimental methods.

The Role of Rotation on the Yields of the Two γ-Ray Emitters 26Al and 60Fe Ejected by Massive Stars
We show that the observed ^60 Fe/ ^26 Al flux ratio provided by the SPectrometer on INTEGRAL satellite (0.24 ± 0.04) can be reproduced only if rotation is taken into account in the computation of the stellar models.
