Impact of Pycnonuclear Fusion Uncertainties on the Cooling of Accreting Neutron Star Crusts
R. Jain, E. F. Brown, H. Schatz +11
The observation of X-rays during quiescence from transiently accreting neutron stars provides unique clues about the nature of dense matter. This, however, requires extensive model…
Horizons: Nuclear Astrophysics in the 2020s and Beyond
H. Schatz, A. D. Becerril Reyes, A. Best +162
Nuclear Astrophysics is a field at the intersection of nuclear physics and astrophysics, which seeks to understand the nuclear engines of astronomical objects and the origin of the…
The Impact of Neutron Transfer Reactions on Heating and Cooling of Accreted Neutron Star Crusts
H. Schatz, Z. Meisel, E. F. Brown +10
Nuclear reactions heat and cool the crust of accreting neutron stars and need to be understood to interpret observations of X-ray bursts and of long-term cooling in transiently acc…
-decay of V and its Role in Cooling Accreted Neutron Star Crusts
W. -J. Ong, E. F. Brown, J. Browne +20
The interpretation of observations of cooling neutron star crusts in quasi-persistent X-ray transients is affected by predictions of the strength of neutrino cooling via crust Urca…
Crust Cooling Models are Insensitive to the Crust-Core Transition Pressure for Realistic Equations of State
Sudhanva Lalit, Zach Meisel, Edward F. Brown
Neutron stars cooling after sustained accretion outbursts provide unique information about the neutron star crust and underlying dense matter. Comparisons between astronomical obse…
Consistent accretion-induced heating of the neutron-star crust in MXB 1659-29 during two different outbursts
A. S. Parikh, R. Wijnands, L. S. Ootes +10
Monitoring the cooling of neutron-star crusts heated during accretion outbursts allows us to infer the physics of the dense matter present in the crust. We examine the crust coolin…
