Solar abundance of manganese: a case for the existence of near Chandrasekhar-mass Type Ia supernova progenitors
Ivo R. Seitenzahl, Gabriele Cescutti, Friedrich K. Roepke +2
Context: Manganese is predominantly synthesised in Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) explosions. Owing to the entropy dependence of the Mn yield in explosive thermonuclear burning, SNe Ia…
The s-process in the Galactic halo: the fifth signature of spinstars in the early Universe?
Gabriele Cescutti, Cristina Chiappini, Raphael Hirschi +2
Very old halo stars were previously found to show at least four different abundance 'anomalies', which models of fast rotating massive stars (spinstars) can successfully account fo…
Galactic chemical evolution: The role of the first stars
Gabriele Cescutti, Cristina Chiappini
The massive First Stars (the first ones to contribute to the chemical enrichment of the Universe due to their short lifetimes) are long dead, and even though efforts to directly ob…
