Thomas-Fermi Approximation for a Condensate with Higher-order Interactions

M. Thøgersen, N. T. Zinner, A. S. Jensen

We consider the ground state of a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate within the Gross-Pitaevskii theory including the effective-range corrections for a two-body zero-ran…

Stability of a BEC with Higher-order Interactions near a Feshbach Resonance

N. T. Zinner, M. Thøgersen

We consider the stability of an ultracold trapped Bose-Einstein condensate near a Feshbach resonance. Using a modified Gross-Pitaevskii equation that includes higher-order terms an…

Nuclear alpha-particle condensates: Definitions, occurrence conditions, and consequences

N. T. Zinner, A. S. Jensen

There has been a recent flurry of interest in the possibility of condensates of -particles in nuclei. In this letter we discuss occurrence conditions for such states. Using the…

Nucleosynthesis in neutrino heated matter: The vp-process and the r-process

G. Martínez-Pinedo, A. Kelic, K. Langanke +11

This manuscript reviews recent progress in our understanding of the nucleosynthesis of medium and heavy elements in supernovae. Recent hydrodynamical models of core-collapse supern…

Alpha decay rate enhancement in metals: An unlikely scenario

Nikolaj Thomas Zinner

It has been recently suggested that one might drastically shorten the alpha lifetime of nuclear waste products, if these are embedded in metals at low temperatures. Using quantum m…

Muon capture on nuclei: random phase approximation evaluation versus data for 6 Z 94 nuclei

Nikolaj Thomas Zinner, Karlheinz Langanke, Petr Vogel

We use the random phase approximation to systematically describe the total muon capture rates on all nuclei where they have been measured. We reproduce the experimental values on t…
