Rotating massive stars with initial progenitor masses M _prog ∼ 25–140 M _⊙ can leave rapidly rotating black holes to become collapsars. The black holes and the surrounding accretion disks may develop powerful jets by magnetohydrodynamics instabilities ...

Recent Efforts in Data Compilations for Nuclear Astrophysics
Some recent efforts in compiling data for astrophysical purposes are introduced, which were discussed during a JINA-CARINA Collaboration meeting on "Nuclear Physics Data Compilation for Nucleosynthesis Modeling" held at the ECT* in Trento/ Italy from May

Heavy-element yields and abundances of Asymptotic Giant Branch models with a Small Magellanic Cloud metallicity [PDF]
We present new theoretical stellar yields and surface abundances for asymptotic giant branch (AGB) models with a metallicity appropriate for stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC, $Z= 0.0028$, [Fe/H] $\approx -0.7$).

MESA and NuGrid simulations of classical novae: CO and ONe nova nucleosynthesis [PDF]
Classical novae are the result of thermonuclear flashes of hydrogen accreted by CO or ONe white dwarfs, leading eventually to the dynamic ejection of the surface layers.

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.

We investigate the nucleosynthesis in a massive star of 70 M_solar with solar metallicity in the main sequence stage. The helium core mass after hydrogen burning corresponds to 32 M_solar.

Constraints on Early Nucleosynthesis from the Abundance Pattern of a Damped Ly-alpha System at z = 2.626 [PDF]
We have investigated chemical evolution in the young universe by analysing the detailed chemical enrichment pattern of a metal-rich galaxy at high redshift.

The bulk mineralogy, elemental composition, and water content of the Winchcombe CM chondrite fall
Abstract On the microscale, the Winchcombe CM carbonaceous chondrite contains a number of lithological units with a variety of degrees of aqueous alteration. However, an understanding of the average hydration state is useful when comparing to other meteorites and remote observations of airless bodies.

We use the growing data sets of very-metal-poor stars to study the impact of stellar winds of fast rotating massive stars on the chemical enrichment of the early Galaxy.

Evolution and Nucleosynthesis of Zero Metal Intermediate Mass Stars [PDF]
New stellar models with mass ranging between 4 and 8 Mo, Z=0 and Y=0.23 are presented. The models have been evolved from the pre Main Sequence up to the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB).
