Quantum Statistical Corrections to Astrophysical Photodisintegration Rates
G. J. Mathews, Yamac Pehlivan, Toshitaka Kajino +2
Tabulated rates for astrophysical photodisintegration reactions make use of Boltzmann statistics for the photons involved as well as the interacting nuclei. Here we derive analytic…
Destruction of 7Be in big bang nucleosynthesis via long-lived sub-strongly interacting massive particles as a solution to the Li problem
Masahiro Kawasaki, Motohiko Kusakabe
We identify reactions which destroy 7Be and 7Li during big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) in the scenario of BBN catalyzed by a long-lived sub-strongly interacting massive particle (su…
Signals of the cosmological reionization in the radio sky through C and O fine structure lines
Motohiko Kusakabe, Masahiro Kawasaki
We study the excitation of fine structure levels of C I, C II and O I by ultraviolet (UV) photons around strong UV sources which are also ionizing sources of the cosmological reion…
Big Bang Nucleosynthesis with long-lived strongly interacting relic particles
Motohiko Kusakabe, Toshitaka Kajino, Takashi Yoshida +1
We study effects of relic long-lived strongly interacting massive particles (X particles) on big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN). The X particle is assumed to have existed during the BB…
New results on catalyzed BBN with a long-lived negatively-charged massive particle
Motohiko Kusakabe, Toshitaka Kajino, Takashi Yoshida +1
It has been proposed that the apparent discrepancies between the inferred primordial abundances of 6Li and 7Li and the predictions of big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) can be resolved…
Production of the p-Process Nuclei in the Carbon-Deflagration Model for Type Ia Supernovae
Motohiko Kusakabe, Nobuyuki Iwamoto, Ken'ichi Nomoto
We calculate nucleosynthesis of proton-rich isotopes in the carbon-deflagration model for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). The seed abundances are obtained by calculating the s-process…
