Astronuclear Physics: a Tale of the Atomic Nuclei in the Skies

M. Arnould, S. Goriely

A century ago, nuclear physics entered astrophysics, giving birth to a new field of science referred to as "Nuclear Astrophysics". With time, it developed at an impressive pace int…

OB Associations, Wolf-Rayet Stars, and the Origin of Galactic Cosmic Rays

W. R. Binns, M. E. Wiedenbeck, M. Arnould +10

We have measured the isotopic abundances of neon and a number of other species in the galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) using the Cosmic Ray Isotope Spectrometer (CRIS) aboard the ACE sp…

The r-process of stellar nucleosynthesis: Astrophysics and nuclear physics achievements and mysteries

M. Arnould, S. Goriely, K. Takahashi

The r-process, or the rapid neutron-capture process, of stellar nucleosynthesis is called for to explain the production of the stable (and some long-lived radioactive) neutron-rich…

The production of short-lived radionuclides by new non-rotating and rotating Wolf-Rayet model stars

M. Arnould, S. Goriely, G. Meynet

It has been speculated that WR winds may have contaminated the forming solar system, in particular with short-lived radionuclides (half-lives in the approximate 10^5 - 10^8 y range…
