Correlated and uncorrelated Monte Carlo neutron capture rate variations in weak -process simulations
Atul Kedia, Jeffrey M. Berryman, Jonathan Cabrera Garcia +7
Reliable predictions of weak rapid neutron capture (-process) abundances require a systematic treatment of nuclear physics uncertainties, especially neutron capture rat…
Propagating Uncertainties from Nuclear Physics to Gamma-rays in Core Collapse Supernovae
Chris L Fryer, Hendrik Schatz, Samuel Jones +18
Nuclear yields are powerful probes of supernova explosions, their engines and their progenitors. In addition, as we improve our understanding of these explosions, we can use nuclea…
Gamma rays as a signature of r-process producing supernovae: remnants and future Galactic explosions
Zhenghai Liu, Evan Grohs, Kelsey A. Lund +5
We consider the question of whether core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) can produce rapid neutron capture process (r-process) elements and how future MeV gamma-ray observations could…
Angle-dependent in-situ fast flavor transformations in post-neutron star merger disks
Kelsey A. Lund, Payel Mukhopadhyay, Jonah M. Miller +1
The remnant black hole-accretion disk system resulting from binary neutron star mergers has proven to be a promising site for synthesizing the heaviest elements via rapid neutron c…
Mass measurements of neutron-rich nuclides using the Canadian Penning Trap to inform predictions in the -process rare-earth peak region
D. Ray, N. Vassh, B. Liu +25
Studies aiming to determine the astrophysical origins of nuclei produced by the rapid neutron capture process ( process) rely on nuclear properties as inputs for simulations. Th…
Kilonova Emissions from Neutron Star Merger Remnants: Implications for Nuclear Equation of State
Kelsey A. Lund, Rahul Somasundaram, Gail C. McLaughlin +3
Multi-messenger observation of binary neutron-star mergers can provide valuable information on the nuclear equation of state (EoS). Here, we investigate to which extent electromagn…
The time evolution of fast flavor crossings in post-merger disks around a black hole remnant
Payel Mukhopadhyay, Jonah Miller, Gail C. McLaughlin
We postprocess a three-dimensional general relativistic, full transport neutrino radiation magnetohydrodynamics simulation of the black hole--accretion disk--wind system thought to…
Nuclear uncertainties associated with the ejecta of a neutron-star black-hole accretion disk
M. R. Mumpower, T. M. Sprouse, J. M. Miller +5
The simulation of heavy element nucleosynthesis requires input from yet-to-be-measured nuclear properties. The uncertainty in the values of these off-stability nuclear properties p…
Emergent nucleosynthesis from a 1.2 second long simulation of a black-hole accretion disk
T. M. Sprouse, K. A. Lund, J. M. Miller +2
We simulate a black-hole accretion disk system with full-transport general relativistic neutrino radiation magnetohydrodynamics (GRRMHD) for 1.2 seconds. This system is likely t…
Sensitivity studies for r-process nucleosynthesis in three astrophysical scenarios
R. Surman, M. Mumpower, J. Cass +3
In rapid neutron capture, or r-process, nucleosynthesis, heavy elements are built up via a sequence of neutron captures and beta decays that involves thousands of nuclei far from s…
Nucleosynthesis of Nickel-56 from Gamma-Ray Burst Accretion Disks
R. Surman, G. C. McLaughlin, N. Sabbatino
We examine the prospects for producing Nickel-56 from black hole accretion disks, by examining a range of steady state disk models. We focus on relatively slowly accreting disks in…
Neutrino Interactions in the Outflow from Gamma-Ray Burst Accretion Disks
R. Surman, G. C. McLaughlin
We examine the composition of matter as it flows away from gamma ray burst accretion disks, in order to determine what sort of nucleosynthesis may occur. Since there is a large flu…
