The Impact of Nuclear Reaction Rate Uncertainties On The Evolution of Core-Collapse Supernova Progenitors
C. E. Fields, F. X. Timmes, R. Farmer +3
We explore properties of core-collapse supernova progenitors with respect to the composite uncertainties in the thermonuclear reaction rates by coupling the reaction rate probabili…
Blue supergiants as descendants of magnetic main sequence stars
I. Petermann, N. Langer, N. Castro +1
About 10 of the massive main sequence stars have recently been found to host a strong, large scale magnetic field. Both, the origin and the evolutionary consequences of these f…
Have Superheavy Elements been Produced in Nature?
I. Petermann, K. Langanke, G. Martínez-Pinedo +3
We discuss the possibility whether superheavy elements can be produced in Nature by the astrophysical rapid neutron capture process. To this end we have performed fully dynamical n…
R-process nucleosynthesis calculations with complete nuclear physics input
I. Petermann, A. Arcones, A. Kelić +8
The r-process constitutes one of the major challenges in nuclear astrophysics. Its astrophysical site has not yet been identified but there is observational evidence suggesting tha…
