It Takes Two: nucleosynthesis in core-collapse supernova simulations of binary-star progenitors

Gaétan Jalin, Almudena Arcones, Evan P. O'Connor +2

Binary interaction is common amongst massive stars and can significantly alter their pre-supernova structure and composition. This has important consequences for the nucleosyntheti…

Bayesian Inference of Stellar r-Process Abundances

Jan Kuske, Almudena Arcones, Isak Svensson

The abundances of heavy elements observed in metal-poor, r-process-enhanced stars provide unique information about the astrophysical conditions in which the rapid neutron-capture p…

HRMOS: A High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph for the VLT

Laura Magrini, Thomas Bensby, Sofia Randich +174

This White Paper presents the scientific rationale and instrument concept for HRMOS (High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph), a next-generation instrument proposed for the ESO V…

Propagating Uncertainties from Nuclear Physics to Gamma-rays in Core Collapse Supernovae

Chris L Fryer, Hendrik Schatz, Samuel Jones +18

Nuclear yields are powerful probes of supernova explosions, their engines and their progenitors. In addition, as we improve our understanding of these explosions, we can use nuclea…

Constraining r-process nucleosynthesis with multi-objective Galactic chemical evolution models

M. Molero, A. Arcones, F. Montes +1

The astrophysical site(s) of the r-process are uncertain, with candidates such as neutron star mergers and magneto-rotational supernovae predicting different event rates, delay tim…

r-Process Nucleosynthesis With Ab Initio Nuclear Masses Around The N=82 Shell Closure

Jan Kuske, Takayuki Miyagi, Almudena Arcones +1

Our understanding of the origin of heavy elements beyond iron relies on the rapid neutron capture process (r-process), which accounts for roughly half of their cosmic abundance. Ho…
