Kilonovae across the nuclear physics landscape: The impact of nuclear physics uncertainties on r-process-powered emission
Jennifer Barnes, Y. L. Zhu, K. A. Lund +5
Merging neutron stars produce "kilonovae"---electromagnetic transients powered by the decay of unstable nuclei synthesized via rapid neutron capture (the r-process) in material tha…

Modeling Kilonova Light Curves: Dependence on Nuclear Inputs
Y. L. Zhu, K. Lund, J. Barnes +5
The mergers of binary neutron stars, as well as black hole-neutron star systems, are expected to produce an electromagnetic counterpart that can be analyzed to infer the element sy…
