Nuclear Physics of X-ray Bursts
Yi Xu, Hendrik Schatz, Rita Lau +2
Thermonuclear X-ray bursts from the surface of accreting neutron stars are the most common astrophysical explosions in our galaxy. They provide a unique window into the physics of…

Spallation-altered accreted compositions for X-ray bursts: Impact on ignition conditions and burst ashes
J. S. Randhawa, Z. Meisel, S. A. Giuliani +5
Dependable predictions of the X-ray burst ashes and light curves require a stringent constraint on the composition of the accreted material as an input parameter. Lower metallicity…

Dependence of X-Ray Burst Models on Nuclear Reaction Rates
R. H. Cyburt, A. M. Amthor, A. Heger +5
X-ray bursts are thermonuclear flashes on the surface of accreting neutron stars and reliable burst models are needed to interpret observations in terms of properties of the neutro…
