Reaction rate sensitivity of 44Ti production in massive stars and implications of a thick target yield measurement of 40Ca(alpha,gamma)44Ti
R. D. Hoffman, S. A. Sheets, J. T. Burke +12
We evaluate two dominant nuclear reaction rates and their uncertainties that affect 44Ti production in explosive nucleosynthesis. Experimentally we develop thick-target yields for…
Nucleosynthesis in Early Neutrino Driven Winds
R. D. Hoffman, J. L. Fisker, J. Pruet +3
Nucleosynthesis in early neutrino winds is investigated. Presented is a brief overview of two recent problems of supernova nucleosynthesis. In the first part we investigate the eff…
Nucleosynthesis in early supernova winds III: No significant contribution from neutron-rich pockets
R. D. Hoffman, J. Pruet, J. L. Fisker +3
Recent nucleosynthesis calculations of Type II supernovae using advanced neutrino transport determine that the early neutrino winds are proton-rich. However, a fraction of the ejec…
On the origin of the lightest Molybdenum isotopes
Jacob Lund Fisker, Robert D. Hoffman, Jason Pruet
We discuss implications of recent precision measurements for the Rh93 proton separation energy for the production of the lightest molybdenum isotopes in proton-rich type II superno…
The O(,)Ne Breakout Reaction and Impact on X-Ray Bursts
W. P. Tan, J. L. Fisker, J. Goerres +2
The breakout reaction O()Ne, which regulates the flow between the hot CNO cycle and the rp-process, is critical for the explanation of the burst amplitude and pe…
Simulations of the Boundary Layer Between a White Dwarf and its Accretion Disk
Dinshaw S. Balsara, Jacob Lund Fisker, Patrick Godon +1
Using a 2.5D time-dependent axisymmetric numerical code we recently developed, we solve the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations (including an alpha-viscosity prescription) to…
