Solar fusion III: New data and theory for hydrogen-burning stars
B. Acharya, M. Aliotta, A. B. Balantekin +47
In stars that lie on the main sequence in the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram, like our sun, hydrogen is fused to helium in a number of nuclear reaction chains and series, such as the p…
Measurement of F(,)Ne reaction suggests CNO break-out in first stars
Liyong Zhang, Jianjun He, Richard J. deBoer +33
The origin of calcium production in the first stars (Pop III stars), which formed out of the primordial matter of the Big Bang, and their fates, remain most fascinating mysteries i…
The Branchings of the Main s-process: Their Sensitivity to alpha-induced Reactions on 13C and 22Ne and to the Uncertainties of the Nuclear Network
Sara Bisterzo, Roberto Gallino, Franz Kaeppeler +6
This paper provides a detailed analysis of the main component of the slow neutron capture process (the s-process), which accounts for the solar abundances of half of the nuclei wit…
AGB yields and Galactic Chemical Evolution: last updated
S. Bisterzo, C. Travaglio, M. Wiescher +7
We study the s-process abundances at the epoch of the Solar-system formation as the outcome of nucleosynthesis occurring in AGB stars of various masses and metallicities. The calcu…
Production of carbon-rich presolar grains from massive stars
M. Pignatari, M. Wiescher, F. X. Timmes +6
About a year after core collapse supernova, dust starts to condense in the ejecta. In meteorites, a fraction of C-rich presolar grains (e.g., silicon carbide (SiC) grains of Type-X…
