Catching Element Formation In The Act
Chris L. Fryer, Frank Timmes, Aimee L. Hungerford +216
Gamma-ray astronomy explores the most energetic photons in nature to address some of the most pressing puzzles in contemporary astrophysics. It encompasses a wide range of objects…
Extreme Astrophysics with Neutron Stars
Dong Lai, Marten van Kerkwijk, Jon Arons +11
We highlight recent theoretical and observational progress in several areas of neutron star astrophysics, and discuss the prospect for advances in the next decade.
The reactions and ashes of thermonuclear explosions on neutron stars
J. L. Fisker, E. Brown, M. Liebendoerfer +2
This paper reports on the detailed rp-process reaction flow on an accreting neutron star and the resulting ashes of a type I X-ray burst. It is obtained by coupling a 298 isotope r…
Extracting the rp-process from X-ray burst light curves
J. L. Fisker, E. Brown, M. Liebendoerfer +2
The light curves of type I X-ray bursts (XRBs) result from energy released from the atmosphere of a neutron star when accreted hydrogen and helium ignite and burn explosively via t…
