Silicon Isotopic Composition of Mainstream Presolar SiC Grains Revisited: The Impact of Nuclear Reaction Rate Uncertainties

Hung Kwan Fok, Marco Pignatari, Benoît Côté +1

Presolar grains are stardust particles that condensed in the ejecta or in the outflows of dying stars and can today be extracted from meteorites. They recorded the nucleosynthetic…

Aeos: Transport of Metals from Minihalos following Population III Stellar Feedback

Jennifer Mead, Kaley Brauer, Greg L. Bryan +7

We investigate how stellar feedback from the first stars (Population III) distributes metals through the interstellar and intergalactic medium using the star-by-star cosmological h…

129I and 247Cm in Meteorites Constrain the Last Astrophysical Source of Solar r-process Elements

Benoit Côté, Marius Eichler, Andrés Yagüe +12

The composition of the early Solar System can be inferred from meteorites. Many elements heavier than iron were formed by the rapid neutron-capture process (r process), but the ast…

The Impact of Nuclear Physics Uncertainties on Galactic Chemical Evolution Predictions

Benoit Côté, Pavel Denissenkov, Falk Herwig +7

Modeling the evolution of the elements in the Milky Way is a multidisciplinary and challenging task. In addition to simulating the 13 billion years evolution of our Galaxy, chemica…

LRP2020: The cosmic origin and evolution of the elements

Rodrigo Fernández, Falk Herwig, Samar Safi-Harb +16

The origin of many elements of the periodic table remains an unsolved problem. While many nucleosynthetic channels are broadly understood, significant uncertainties remain regardin…
