Dynamical Relics of the Ancient Galactic Halo
Zhen Yuan, G. C. Myeong, Timothy C. Beers +11
We search for dynamical substructures in the LAMOST DR3 very metal-poor (VMP) star catalog. After cross-matching with Gaia DR2, there are 3300 VMP stars with available high-quality…
New \textsl{s}-process Mechanism in Rapidly-Rotating Massive Pop II Stars
Projjwal Banerjee, Alexander Heger, Yong-Zhong Qian
We report a new mechanism for the \textsl{s} in rotating massive metal-poor stars. Our models show that above a critical rotation speed, such stars evolve in a quasi-chemically-hom…
Finding the remnants of the Milky Way's last neutron star mergers
Meng-Ru Wu, Projjwal Banerjee, Brian D. Metzger +6
The discovery of a binary neutron star merger (NSM) through both its gravitational wave and electromagnetic emission has revealed these events to be key sites of r-process nucleosy…
