The -Process Alliance: On J00101735, an Accreted, Chemically Unusual, Metal-poor Star with -process Enhancement

Zoe Hackshaw, Rana Ezzeddine, Shivani P. Shah +11

We present a detailed chemo-dynamical analysis of the chemically peculiar very metal-poor ([Fe/H]) Milky Way (MW) halo star, 2MASS J001017581735387 (hereafter J0…

The \emph{R}-process Alliance: A Bright, Strongly \emph{R}-process-enhanced Extremely Metal-poor Star Observed with GHOST

Mohammad K. Mardini, Anna Frebel, Vinicius M. Placco +8

We present a detailed chemical-abundance and kinematic analysis of four extremely metal-poor (EMP; [Fe/H] ) stars identified from \textit{Gaia} BP/RP data in our ongoing…

The -Process Alliance: Actinide Abundances, Variation, and Evolution in Metal-Poor Stars

Shivani P. Shah, Rana Ezzeddine, Erika M. Holmbeck +11

The actinides, including thorium (Th), are the heaviest observable elements synthesized in the universe, holding clues to the extremes of the astrophysical and nuclear conditions o…

The R-Process Alliance: Exploring the cosmic scatter among ten r-process sites with stellar abundances

Mila Racca, Terese T. Hansen, Ian U. Roederer +11

The astrophysical origin of the rapid neutron-capture process (r-process), which produces about half of the elements heavier than iron, remains uncertain. The oldest, most metal-po…

The R-Process Alliance: Hunting for gold in the near-UV spectrum of 2MASS J05383296-5904280

Terese T. Hansen, Ian U. Roederer, Shivani P. Shah +10

Context. Over the past few years, the -Process Alliance (RPA) has successfully carried out a search for stars that are highly enhanced in elements produced via the rapid neutron…

The R-Process Alliance: Fifth Data Release from the Search for R-Process-Enhanced Metal-poor Stars in the Galactic Halo with the GTC

Avrajit Bandyopadhyay, Rana Ezzeddine, Carlos Allende Prieto +9

Understanding the abundance pattern of metal-poor stars and the production of heavy elements through various nucleosynthesis processes offers crucial insights into the chemical evo…
