H ingestion into He-burning convection zones in super-AGB stellar models as a potential site for intermediate neutron-density nucleosynthesis

S. Jones, C. Ritter, F. Herwig +4

We investigate the evolution of super-AGB thermal pulse (TP) stars for a range of metallicities (Z) and explore the effect of convective boundary mixing (CBM). With decreasing meta…

The first direct measurement of 12C(12C,n)23Mg at stellar energies

B. Bucher, X. D. Tang, X. Fang +28

Neutrons produced by the carbon fusion reaction 12C(12C,n)23Mg play an important role in stellar nucleosynthesis. However, past studies have shown large discrepancies between exper…
