Constraints on explosive silicon burning in core-collapse supernovae from measured Ni/Fe ratios

A. Jerkstrand, F. X. Timmes, G. Magkotsios +7

Measurements of explosive nucleosynthesis yields in core-collapse supernovae provide tests for explosion models. We investigate constraints on explosive conditions derivable from m…

The light curve of SN 1987A revisited: constraining production masses of radioactive nuclides

I. R. Seitenzahl, F. X. Timmes, G. Magkotsios

We revisit the evidence for the contribution of the long-lived radioactive nuclides 44Ti, 55Fe, 56Co, 57Co, and 60Co to the UVOIR light curve of SN 1987A. We show that the V-band l…

Freeze-out yields of radioactivities in core-collapse supernovae

Georgios Magkotsios, F. X. Timmes, Michael Wiescher

We explore the nucleosynthesis trends from two mechanisms during freeze-out expansions in core-collapse supernovae. The first mechanism is related to the convection and instabiliti…

Trends in Ti44 and Ni56 from Core-Collapse Supernovae

Georgios Magkotsios, Francis X. Timmes, Aimee L. Hungerford +3

We compare the yields of Ti44 and Ni56 produced from post-processing the thermodynamic trajectories from three different core-collapse models -- a Cassiopeia A progenitor, a double…

The effect of 12C + 12C rate uncertainties on s-process yields

M E Bennett, R Hirschi, M Pignatari +9

The slow neutron capture process in massive stars (the weak s-process) produces most of the s-only isotopes in the mass region 60 < A < 90. The nuclear reaction rates used in simul…

Complete nucleosynthesis calculations for low-mass stars from NuGrid

Marco Pignatari, Falk Herwig, Michael Bennett +8

Many nucleosynthesis and mixing processes of low-mass stars as they evolve from the Main Sequence to the thermal-pulse Asymptotic Giant Branch phase (TP-AGB) are well understood (a…
