Presupernova Evolution of Rotating Massive Stars and the Rotation Rate of Pulsars
A. Heger, S. E. Woosley, N. Langer +1
Rotation in massive stars has been studied on the main sequence and during helium burning for decades, but only recently have realistic numerical simulations followed the transport…
Nuclear Aspects of the s- and n-Processes in Massive Stars
T. Rauscher, A. Heger, S. E. Woosley +1
In order to study the processes creating intermediate and heavy nuclei in massive stars it is necessary to provide neutron capture cross sections and reaction rates close to stabil…
Nucleosynthesis in Massive Stars - Including All Stable Isotopes
A. Heger, R. D. Hoffman, T. Rauscher +1
We present the first calculations to follow the evolution of all stable isotopes (and their abundant radioactive progenitors) in a finely zoned stellar model computed from the onse…
Collapsars, Gamma-Ray Bursts, and Supernovae
S. E. Woosley, A. I. MacFadyen, A. Heger
A diverse range of phenomena is possible when a black hole experiences very rapid accretion from a disk due to the incomplete explosion of a massive presupernova star endowed with…
Mixing and nucleosynthesis in rotating TP-AGB stars
N. Langer, A. Heger, S. Wellstein +1
We present the first evolutionary models of intermediate mass stars up to their thermal pulses which include effects of rotation on the stellar structure as well as rotationally in…
The Evolution of Surface Parameters of Rotating Massive Stars
Norbert Langer, Alexander Heger
We summarize the present status of the predictions of massive star models for the evolution of their surface properties. After discussing luminosity, temperature and chemical compo…
