Wave-Driven Mixing Enhanced by Rotation in Red Giant Branch Stars

Simon Blouin, Paul R. Woodward, Pavel A. Denissenkov +2

Stars like our Sun expand as they exhaust their core hydrogen fuel, becoming red giants that eventually reach sizes up to 100 times their original radius. These giants have long pr…

Can COSI detect -ray lines from rare isotopes produced in the astrophysical intermediate neutron-capture process?

Falk Herwig, Pavel Denissenkov, Eric Burns

We investigate the nuclear -ray line emission from rare isotopes produced in the astrophysical intermediate neutron-capture process ( process) and assess the prospects of obs…

The NuGrid AGB Evolution and Nucleosynthesis Data Set

Umberto Battino, Marco Pignatari, Ashley Tattersall +2

Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars play a key role in the chemical evolution of galaxies. These stars are the fundamental stellar site for the production of light elements such as…

Calcium Excess in Novae: Beyond Nuclear Physics Uncertainties

Mallory Loria, Pavel Denissenkov, Chris Ruiz +1

We examine Ca abundances in classical novae from spectroscopic observations spanning 65 years and investigate whether they are systematically high compared to those predicted by no…

Trans-Fe elements from Type Ia Supernovae. I. Heavy element nucleosynthesis during the formation of near-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs

Umberto Battino, James Keegans, Megan Allen +9

Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) are thermonuclear explosions of white dwarfs in binary systems. They are central to galactic chemical evolution and serve as standardizable candles in cos…
