Infrared spectral signatures of light r-process elements in kilonovae
Anders Jerkstrand, Quentin Pognan, Smaranika Banerjee +8
A central question regarding neutron star mergers is whether they are able to produce all the r-process elements, from first to third peak. The high abundances of first-peak elemen…

Light Travel Time Effects in Kilonova Models
F. McNeill, S. A. Sim, C. E. Collins +4
The extremely rapid evolution of kilonovae results in spectra that change on an hourly basis. These spectra are key to understanding the processes occurring within the event, but t…
