Slow White Dwarf Mergers as a New Galactic Source of Trans-Iron Elements
Umberto Battino, Claudia Lederer-Woods, Claudia Travaglio +2
The astrophysical origins of the heaviest stable elements that we observe today in the Solar System are still not fully understood. Recent studies have demonstrated that H-accretin…
Impact of newly measured 26Al(n, p)26Mg and 26Al(n, α)23Na reaction rates on the nucleosynthesis of 26Al in stars
Umberto Battino, Claudia Lederer-Woods, Marco Pignatari +6
The cosmic production of the short-lived radioactive nuclide 26Al is crucial for our understanding of the evolution of stars and galaxies. However, simulations of the stellar sites…
Heavy Elements Nucleosynthesis On Accreting White Dwarfs: building seeds for the p-process
Umberto Battino, Marco Pignatari, Claudia Travaglio +5
The origin of the proton-rich trans-iron isotopes in the solar system is still uncertain. Single-degenerate thermonuclear supernovae (SNIa) with n-capture nucleosynthesis seeds ass…
NuGrid stellar data set - III. Updated low-mass AGB models and s-process nucleosynthesis with metallicities Z=0.01, Z=0.02 and Z=0.03
Umberto Battino, Ashley Tattersall, Claudia Lederer-Woods +6
The production of the neutron-capture isotopes beyond iron that we observe today in the solar system is the result of the combined contribution of the r-process, the s- process and…
