Can pre-supernova winds from massive stars enrich the interstellar medium with nitrogen at high redshift?
Arpita Roy, Mark R. Krumholz, Michael A. Dopita +3
Understanding the nucleosynthetic origin of nitrogen and the evolution of the N/O ratio in the interstellar medium is crucial for a comprehensive picture of galaxy chemical evoluti…
Long-term evolution of post-explosion Helium-star Companions of Type Iax Supernovae
Yaotian Zeng, Zheng-Wei Liu, Alexander Heger +3
Supernovae of Type Iax (SNe Iax) are an accepted faint subclass of hydrogen-free supernovae. Their origin, the nature of the progenitor systems, however, is an open question. Recen…
Horizons: Nuclear Astrophysics in the 2020s and Beyond
H. Schatz, A. D. Becerril Reyes, A. Best +162
Nuclear Astrophysics is a field at the intersection of nuclear physics and astrophysics, which seeks to understand the nuclear engines of astronomical objects and the origin of the…
The Role of the Hadron-Quark Phase Transition in Core-Collapse Supernovae
Pia Jakobus, Bernhard Mueller, Alexander Heger +3
The hadron-quark phase transition in quantum chromodyanmics has been suggested as an alternative explosion mechanism for core-collapse supernovae. We study the impact of three diff…
