The impact of (n,) reaction rate uncertainties of unstable isotopes near on the i process nucleosynthesis in He-shell flash white dwarfs
Pavel Denissenkov, Georgios Perdikakis, Falk Herwig +6
The first peak s-process elements Rb, Sr, Y and Zr in the post-AGB star Sakurai's object (V4334 Sagittarii) have been proposed to be the result of i-process nucleosynthesis in a po…
i-process nucleosynthesis and mass retention efficiency in He-shell flash evolution of rapidly accreting white dwarfs
Pavel Denissenkov, Falk Herwig, Umberto Battino +4
Based on stellar evolution simulations, we demonstrate that rapidly accreting white dwarfs in close binary systems are an astrophysical site for the intermediate neutron-capture pr…
Advanced LIGO Constraints on Neutron Star Mergers and R-Process Sites
Benoit Côté, Krzysztof Belczynski, Chris L. Fryer +4
The role of compact binary mergers as the main production site of r-process elements is investigated by combining stellar abundances of Eu observed in the Milky Way, galactic chemi…
JINA-NuGrid Galactic Chemical Evolution Pipeline
Benoit Côté, Christian Ritter, Falk Herwig +5
Galactic chemical evolution is a topic that involves nuclear physics, stellar evolution, galaxy evolution, observation, and cosmology. Continuous communication and feedback between…
Application of a Theory and Simulation based Convective Boundary Mixing model for AGB Star Evolution and Nucleosynthesis
U. Battino, M. Pignatari, C. Ritter +8
The -process nucleosynthesis in Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars depends on the modeling of convective boundaries. We present models and s-process simulations that adopt a tr…
The Impact of Modeling Assumptions in Galactic Chemical Evolution Models
Benoit Côté, Brian W. O'Shea, Christian Ritter +2
We use the OMEGA galactic chemical evolution code to investigate how the assumptions used for the treatment of galactic inflows and outflows impact numerical predictions. The goal…
Mass and Metallicity Requirement in Stellar Models for Galactic Chemical Evolution Applications
Benoit Côté, Christopher West, Alexander Heger +5
We used a one-zone chemical evolution model to address the question of how many masses and metallicities are required in grids of massive stellar models in order to ensure reliable…
