The -Process Alliance: Actinide Abundances, Variation, and Evolution in Metal-Poor Stars
Shivani P. Shah, Rana Ezzeddine, Erika M. Holmbeck +11
The actinides, including thorium (Th), are the heaviest observable elements synthesized in the universe, holding clues to the extremes of the astrophysical and nuclear conditions o…
Chemical Abundances in the Metal-Poor Globular Cluster ESO 280-SC06: A Formerly Massive, Tidally Disrupted Globular Cluster
Sam A. Usman, Alexander P. Ji, Jandrie Rodriguez +6
We present the first high-resolution abundance study of ESO 280-SC06, one of the least luminous and most metal-poor gravitationally bound Milky Way globular clusters. Using Magella…
The R-Process Alliance: Hunting for gold in the near-UV spectrum of 2MASS J05383296-5904280
Terese T. Hansen, Ian U. Roederer, Shivani P. Shah +10
Context. Over the past few years, the -Process Alliance (RPA) has successfully carried out a search for stars that are highly enhanced in elements produced via the rapid neutron…
The R-Process Alliance: Fifth Data Release from the Search for R-Process-Enhanced Metal-poor Stars in the Galactic Halo with the GTC
Avrajit Bandyopadhyay, Rana Ezzeddine, Carlos Allende Prieto +9
Understanding the abundance pattern of metal-poor stars and the production of heavy elements through various nucleosynthesis processes offers crucial insights into the chemical evo…
