Reverse engineering nuclear properties from rare earth abundances in the process
M. R. Mumpower, G. C. McLaughlin, R. Surman +1
The bulk of the rare earth elements are believed to be synthesized in the rapid neutron capture process or process of nucleosynthesis. The solar -process residuals show a sm…
Neutron-gamma competition for -delayed neutron emission
Matthew Mumpower, Toshihiko Kawano, Peter Moller
We present a coupled Quasi-particle Random Phase Approximation and Hauser-Feshbach (QRPA+HF) model for calculating delayed particle emission. This approach uses microscopic nuclear…
Beta decay of deformed r-process nuclei near A = 80 and A= 160, including odd-A and odd-odd nuclei, with the Skyrme finite-amplitude method
T. Shafer, J. Engel, C. Fröhlich +3
After identifying the nuclei in the regions near A =80 and A = 160 for which beta-decay rates have the greatest effect on weak and main r-process abundance patterns, we apply the f…
The link between rare earth peak formation and the astrophysical site of the process
M. R. Mumpower, G. C. McLaughlin, R. Surman +1
The primary astrophysical source of the rare earth elements is the rapid neutron capture process ( process). The rare earth peak that is seen in the solar -process residuals…
