Photo-z optimization for measurements of the BAO radial direction

Daniel Roig, Licia Verde, Jordi Miralda-Escude +2

Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) in the radial direction offer a method to directly measure the Universe expansion history, and to set limits to space curvature when combined to…

The Role of Massive Agb Stars in the Early Solar System Composition

Josep M. Trigo-Rodriguez, Domingo Anibal Garcia-Hernandez, Maria Lugaro +4

We demonstrate that a massive asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star is a good candidate as the main source of short-lived radionuclides in the early solar system. Recent identificatio…
