The physics of deep-interior convective shell boundaries in a massive pre-supernova star: Internal gravity wave mixing at the peak
Praneet Pathak, Falk Herwig, Simon Blouin +2
The physics of convective boundary mixing involves concepts such as penetration and overshooting and has been mostly characterized for envelope and core convection. For the burning…
Pre-supernova O-C shell mergers could produce more than the explosion
Joshua Issa, Falk Herwig
The formation of in massive stars is thought to occur during explosive nucleosynthesis, however recent studies have shown it can be produced during O-C shell mer…
3D Macro Physics and Light Odd-Z Element Production in O-C Shell Mergers: Implications for production and radiogenic heating inventories of rocky exoplanets
Joshua Issa, Falk Herwig, Stephen J. Mojzsis +1
The light odd-Z elements P, Cl, K, and Sc are underproduced in galactic chemical evolution models compared to spectroscopic observations of stars in the Milky Way. The most promisi…
Impact of 3D macro physics and nuclear physics on the p nuclei in O-C shell mergers
Joshua Issa, Falk Herwig, Pavel Denissenkov +1
O-C shell mergers in massive stars are a site for producing the p nuclei by the process, but 1D stellar models rely on mixing length theory, which does not match the radial vel…
