Large-Scale Calculations of -Decay Rates and Implications for -Process Nucleosynthesis
A. Ravlić, Y. Saito, W. Nazarewicz
Nuclear decay is a key element of the astrophysical rapid neutron capture process (-process). In this paper, we present state-of-the-art global -decay calculations based…
Effect of Finite-Temperature -Decay Rates on the Rapid Neutron Capture Process
Yukiya Saito, Ante Ravlić, Pranav Nalamwar +1
-decay is known to play an essential role in the rapid neutron capture process (-process) during equilibrium and freeze-out when the neutron-r…
Self-consistent microscopic calculations for electron captures on nuclei in core-collapse supernovae
A. Ravlić, S. Giraud, N. Paar +1
Calculations for electron capture rates on nuclei with atomic numbers between and are performed in a self-consistent finite-temperature covariant energy density funct…
The axially-deformed relativistic quasiparticle random phase approximation based on point-coupling interactions
A. Ravlić, T. Nikšić, Y. F. Niu +2
Collective nuclear excitations, like giant resonances, are sensitive to nuclear deformation, as evidenced by alterations in their excitation energies and transition strength distri…
