Deciphering the Origins of the Elements Through Galactic Archeology

Khalil Farouqi, Anna Frebel, Friedrich-Karl Thielemann

Low-metallicity stars preserve the signatures of the first stellar nucleosynthesis events in the Galaxy, as their surface abundances reflect the composition of the interstellar med…

Correlations of r-Process Elements in Very Metal-Poor Stars as Clues to their Nucleosynthesis Sites

Khalil Farouqi, Friedrich-Karl Thielemann, Stephan Rosswog +1

Various nucleosynthesis studies have pointed out that the r-process elements in very metal-poor (VMP) halo stars might have different origins. By means of familiar concepts from st…

The Hamburg/ESO R-process Enhanced Star survey (HERES) XI. The highly -process-enhanced star CS 29497-004

V. Hill, N. Christlieb, T. C. Beers +5

We report an abundance analysis for the highly r-process-enhanced (r-II) star CS 29497-004, a very metal-poor giant with Teff = 5013K and [Fe/H]=-2.85, whose nature was initially d…

A high-entropy wind r-process study based on nuclear-structure quantities from the new finite-range droplet model FRDM(2012)

Karl-Ludwig Kratz, Khalil Farouqi, Peter Möller

Theoretical studies of the nucleosynthesis origin of the heavy elements in our Solar System (S.S.) by the rapid neutron-capture process (r-process) still face the entwined uncertai…

Origin of Anomalous Xe-H in Nanodiamond Stardust

K. -L. Kratz, K. Farouqi, O. Hallmann +2

Still today, the nucleosynthesis origin of Xe-H in presolar nanodiamonds is far from understood. Historically, possible explanations were proposed by a secondary "neutron-burst" pr…

Origin of anomalous Xe-H in presolar diamonds: Indications of a "cold" r-process

Karl-Ludwig Kratz, Khalil Farouqi, Ulrich Ott

We report on a concerted effort aimed at understanding the nucleosynthesis origin of Xe-H in presolar nanodiamonds. Previously explored possible explanations have included a second…
