Fusion of neutron rich oxygen isotopes in the crust of accreting neutron stars
C. J. Horowitz, H. Dussan, D. K. Berry
Fusion reactions in the crust of an accreting neutron star are an important source of heat, and the depth at which these reactions occur is important for determining the temperatur…
The Thermal Regulation of Gravitational Instabilities in Protoplanetary Disks. IV. Simulations with Envelope Irradiation
Kai Cai, Richard H. Durisen, Aaron C. Boley +2
It is generally thought that protoplanetary disks embedded in envelopes are more massive and thus more susceptible to gravitational instabilities (GIs) than exposed disks. We prese…
Phase separation in the crust of accreting neutron stars
C. J. Horowitz, D. K. Berry, E. F. Brown
Nucleosynthesis, on the surface of accreting neutron stars, produces a range of chemical elements. We perform molecular dynamics simulations of crystallization to see how this comp…
