The Impact of Helium-Burning Reaction Rates on Massive Star Evolution and Nucleosynthesis
Christopher West, Alexander Heger, Sam M. Austin
We study the sensitivity of presupernova evolution and supernova nucleosynthesis yields of massive stars to variations of the helium-burning reaction rates within the range of thei…

Metallicity-Dependent Galactic Isotopic Decomposition for Nucleosynthesis
Christopher West, Alexander Heger
All stellar evolution models for nucleosynthesis require an initial isotopic abundance set to use as a starting point. Generally, our knowledge of isotopic abundances of stars is f…
