The Nucleosynthetic Yields of Core-Collapse Supernovae, prospects for the Next Generation of Gamma-Ray Astronomy
Sydney Andrews, Chris L. Fryer, Samuel W. Jones +2
Though the neutrino-driven convection model for the core-collapse explosion mechanism has received strong support in recent years, there are still many uncertainties in the explosi…
The Impact of Nuclear Physics Uncertainties on Galactic Chemical Evolution Predictions
Benoit Côté, Pavel Denissenkov, Falk Herwig +7
Modeling the evolution of the elements in the Milky Way is a multidisciplinary and challenging task. In addition to simulating the 13 billion years evolution of our Galaxy, chemica…
A direct measurement of the 17O(a,g)21Ne reaction in inverse kinematics and its impact on heavy element production
M. P. Taggart, C. Akers, A. M. Laird +33
During the slow neutron capture process in massive stars, reactions on light elements can both produce and absorb neutrons thereby influencing the final heavy element abundances. A…
The s process in rotating low-mass AGB stars. Nucleosynthesis calculations in models matching asteroseismic constraints
J. W. den Hartogh, R. Hirschi, M. Lugaro +5
Aims. We investigate the s-process during the AGB phase of stellar models whose cores are enforced to rotate at rates consistent with asteroseismology observations of their progeni…
Using failed supernovae to constrain the Galactic r-process element production
B. Wehmeyer, C. Frohlich, B. Côté +2
Rapid neutron capture process (r-process) elements have been detected in a large fraction of metal-poor halo stars, with abundances relative to iron (Fe) that vary by over two orde…
Enrichment of the Galactic disc with neutron-capture elements: Mo and Ru
Tamara Mishenina, Marco Pignatari, Tatiana Gorbaneva +4
We present new observational data for the heavy elements molybdenum (Mo, Z = 42) and ruthenium (Ru, Z = 44) in F-, G-, and K-stars belonging to different substructures of the Milky…
