Stellar Interpretation of Meteoritic Data and PLotting for Everyone (SIMPLE): Isotope Mixing Lines for Six Sets of Core-Collapse Supernova Models

Marco Pignatari, Mattias Ek, Georgy V. Makhatadze +15

Bulk meteorites and their inclusions exhibit, for many chemical elements, isotopic variability produced by nucleosynthetic events in stars and supernovae before the formation of th…

The NuGrid AGB Evolution and Nucleosynthesis Data Set

Umberto Battino, Marco Pignatari, Ashley Tattersall +2

Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars play a key role in the chemical evolution of galaxies. These stars are the fundamental stellar site for the production of light elements such as…

Impact of newly measured 26Al(n, p)26Mg and 26Al(n, α)23Na reaction rates on the nucleosynthesis of 26Al in stars

Umberto Battino, Claudia Lederer-Woods, Marco Pignatari +6

The cosmic production of the short-lived radioactive nuclide 26Al is crucial for our understanding of the evolution of stars and galaxies. However, simulations of the stellar sites…

The s Process and Beyond

Maria Lugaro, Marco Pignatari, René Reifarth +1

Neutron captures produce the vast majority of abundances of elements heavier than iron in the Universe. Beyond the classical slow (s) and rapid (r) processes, there is observationa…

Improved thermonuclear rate of Ti(,)V and its astrophysical implication in rp-process

S. Q. Hou, C. Iliadis, M. Pignatari +4

Accurate Ti(,)V reaction rates are crucial for understanding the nucleosynthesis path of the rapid capture process (rp-process) that occurs in X-ray bursts. We…
