Nuclear Mass Measurements Map the Structure of Atomic Nuclei and Accreting Neutron Stars

Z. Meisel, S. George, S. Ahn +28

We present mass excesses (ME) of neutron-rich isotopes of Ar through Fe, obtained via TOF- mass spectrometry at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. Our new resul…

Constraining the Neutron Star Compactness: Extraction of the Al() Reaction Rate for the -Process

C. Wolf, C. Langer, F. Montes +33

The Al()Si reaction is among the most important reactions driving the energy generation in Type-I X-ray bursts. However, the present reaction-rate uncertainty li…

Enhancement of the Triple Alpha Rate in a Hot Dense Medium

Mary Beard, Sam M. Austin, Richard Cyburt

In a sufficiently hot and dense astrophysical environment the rate of the triple-alpha (3alpha) reaction can increase greatly over the value appropriate for helium burning stars ow…

Low-lying level structure of Cu and its implications on the rp process

W-J. Ong, C. Langer, F. Montes +39

The low-lying energy levels of proton-rich Cu have been extracted using in-beam -ray spectroscopy with the state-of-the-art -ray tracking array GRETINA in conjunction…

-particle energy-summing correction for -delayed proton emission measurements

Z. Meisel, M. del Santo, H. L. Crawford +6

A common approach to studying -delayed proton emission is to measure the energy of the emitted proton and corresponding nuclear recoil in a double-sided silicon-strip detector (…

Big Bang Nucleosynthesis: 2015

Richard H. Cyburt, Brian D. Fields, Keith A. Olive +1

Big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) describes the production of the lightest nuclides via a dynamic interplay among the four fundamental forces during the first seconds of cosmic time.…
