Spectroscopic r-Process Abundance Retrieval for Kilonovae II: Lanthanides in the Inferred Abundance Patterns of Multi-Component Ejecta from the GW170817 Kilonova
Nicholas Vieira, John J. Ruan, Daryl Haggard +3
In kilonovae, freshly-synthesized -process elements imprint features on optical spectra, as observed in AT2017gfo, the counterpart to the GW170817 binary neutron star merger. Ho…

KilonovAE: Exploring Kilonova Spectral Features with Autoencoders
N. M. Ford, Nicholas Vieira, John J. Ruan +1
Kilonovae are likely a key site of heavy r-process element production in the Universe, and their optical/infrared spectra contain insights into both the properties of the ejecta an…
