Elucidating the finite temperature quasiparticle random phase approximation

E. M. Ney, A. Ravlić, J. Engel +1

In numerous astrophysical scenarios, such as core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers, as in well as heavy-ion collision experiments, transitions between thermally populat…

The Influence of Beta Decay Rates on r-Process Observables

Kelsey A. Lund, J. Engel, G. C. McLaughlin +3

The rapid neutron capture process (r-process) is one of the main mechanisms whereby elements heavier than iron are synthesized, and is entirely responsible for the natural producti…

Two-body weak currents in heavy nuclei

E. M. Ney, J. Engel, N. Schunck

In light and medium-mass nuclei, two-body weak currents from chiral effective field theory account for a significant portion of the phenomenological quenching of Gamow-Teller trans…

Finite-temperature electron-capture rates for neutron-rich nuclei around N=50 and effects on core-collapse supernovae simulations

S. Giraud, E. M. Ney, A. Ravlić +7

The temperature dependence of stellar electron-capture (EC) rates is investigated, with a focus on nuclei around , just above , which play an important role during the…

Axially-deformed solution of the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov equations using the transformed harmonic oscillator basis (IV) hfbtho (v4.0): A new version of the program

P. Marevic, N. Schunck, E. M. Ney +3

We describe the new version 4.0 of the code hfbtho that solves the nuclear Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov problem by using the deformed harmonic oscillator basis in cylindrical coordinate…

Global Description of Beta Decay with the Axially-Deformed Skyrme Finite Amplitude Method: Extension to Odd-Mass and Odd-Odd Nuclei

E. M. Ney, J. Engel, N. Schunck

We use the finite amplitude method (FAM), an efficient implementation of the quasiparticle random phase approximation, to compute beta-decay rates with Skyrme energy-density functi…
