Revisiting Near-Infrared Features of Kilonovae: The Importance of Gadolinium
Salma Rahmouni, Masaomi Tanaka, Nanae Domoto +7
The observation of the kilonova AT2017gfo and investigations of its light curves and spectra confirmed that neutron star mergers are sites of r-process nucleosynthesis. However, th…
Thorium in Kilonova Spectra: Exploring the Heaviest Detectable Element
Nanae Domoto, Shinya Wanajo, Masaomi Tanaka +2
Kilonova spectra provide us with the direct information of r-process nucleosynthesis in neutron star mergers. In this paper, we study the signatures of elements beyond the third r-…
Theoretical investigation of energy levels and transitions for Ce III with applications to kilonova spectra
G. Gaigalas, P. Rynkun, N. Domoto +3
Doubly ionized cerium (Ce) is one of the most important ions to understand the kilonova spectra. In particular, near-infrared (NIR) transitions of Ce III between the ground…
Three dimensional end-to-end simulation for kilonova emission from a black-hole neutron-star merger
Kyohei Kawaguchi, Nanae Domoto, Sho Fujibayashi +5
We study long-term evolution of the matter ejected in a black-hole neutron-star (BH-NS) merger employing the results of a long-term numerical-relativity simulation and nucleosynthe…
