Transition probabilities of near-infrared Ce III lines from stellar spectra: applications to kilonovae
Nanae Domoto, Jae-Joon Lee, Masaomi Tanaka +6
Kilonova spectra provide us with information of r-process nucleosynthesis in neutron star mergers. However, it is still challenging to identify individual elements in the spectra m…
Heavy element nucleosynthesis associated with a gamma-ray burst
James H. Gillanders, Eleonora Troja, Chris L. Fryer +9
Kilonovae are a novel class of astrophysical transients, and the only observationally-confirmed site of rapid neutron capture nucleosynthesis (the r-process) in the Universe. To da…
Kilonovae of binary neutron star mergers leading to short-lived remnant neutron star formation
Kyohei Kawaguchi, Sho Fujibayashi, Nanae Domoto +3
We study kilonova emission from binary neutron star (BNS) mergers for the case that a remnant massive neutron star (MNS) forms and collapses to a black hole within ms after th…
Cerium features in kilonova near-infrared spectra: implication from a chemically peculiar star
Masaomi Tanaka, Nanae Domoto, Wako Aoki +14
Observations of the kilonova from a neutron star merger event GW170817 opened a way to directly study r-process nucleosynthesis by neutron star mergers. It is, however, challenging…
Non-LTE analysis for Helium and Strontium lines in the kilonova AT2017gfo
Yuta Tarumi, Kenta Hotokezaka, Nanae Domoto +1
Kilonova spectra imprint valuable information about the elements synthesized in neutron star mergers. In AT2017gfo, the kilonova associated with GW170817, the spectroscopic feature…
