Oxygen and Aluminum-Magnesium Isotopic Systematics of Presolar Nanospinel Grains from CI Chondrite Orgueil
Nan Liu, Nicolas Dauphas, Sergio Cristallo +2
Presolar oxide grains have been previously divided into several groups (Group 1 to 4) based on their isotopic compositions, which can be tied to several stellar sources. Much of av…
Bottom-up dust nucleation theory in oxygen-rich evolved stars I. Aluminium oxide clusters
David Gobrecht, John M. C. Plane, Stefan T. Bromley +3
Aluminum oxide (alumina, AlO) is a promising candidate as a primary dust condensate in the atmospheres of oxygen-rich evolved stars. Therefore, alumina \textit{seed} pa…
New Multielement Isotopic Compositions of Presolar SiC Grains: Implications for Their Stellar Origins
Nan Liu, Jens Barosch, Larry R. Nittler +5
We report NanoSIMS Si and Mg-Al isotopic data (and C, N, and Ti isotopic data when available) for 85 submicron- to micron-sized presolar SiC grains from the CM2 Murchison meteorite…
Direct measurement of the 13C(α,n)16O cross section into the s-process Gamow peak
G. F. Ciani, L. Csedreki, D. Rapagnani +45
One of the main neutron sources for the astrophysical s-process is the reaction 13C(α,n)16O, taking place in thermally pulsing Asymptotic Giant Branch stars at temperatures around…
Theoretical estimate of the half-life for the radioactive Cs and Cs in astrophysical scenarios
S. Taioli, D. Vescovi, M. Busso +4
We analyze the CsBa and CsBa decays, which are crucial production channels for Ba isotopes in Asympt…
Presolar grain isotopic ratios as constraints to nuclear and stellar parameters of AGB nucleosynthesis
Sara Palmerini, Maurizio Busso, Diego Vescovi +8
Recent models for evolved Low Mass Stars (with ), undergoing the AGB phase assume that magnetic flux-tube buoyancy drives the formation of C reservoirs…
