Near-infrared spectra of chemically peculiar stars and applications to kilonova spectra
Nanae Domoto, Masaomi Tanaka, Wako Aoki +11
Kilonova spectra provide information on rapid neutron-capture nucleosynthesis in neutron star mergers. However, it remains challenging to identify individual elements in kilonova s…
Revisiting Near-Infrared Features of Kilonovae: The Importance of Gadolinium
Salma Rahmouni, Masaomi Tanaka, Nanae Domoto +7
The observation of the kilonova AT2017gfo and investigations of its light curves and spectra confirmed that neutron star mergers are sites of r-process nucleosynthesis. However, th…
Heavy element nucleosynthesis associated with a gamma-ray burst
James H. Gillanders, Eleonora Troja, Chris L. Fryer +9
Kilonovae are a novel class of astrophysical transients, and the only observationally-confirmed site of rapid neutron capture nucleosynthesis (the r-process) in the Universe. To da…
