An updated picture of pre-solar history from short-lived radioactive isotopes and inferences on the birth of the Sun
Benjámin Soós, Thomas C. L. Trueman, Andrés Yagüe López +2
We examine the origin of the short-lived radionuclides (SLRs, defined as having half-lives between 0.1 and 100 Ma) present in the early Solar System (ESS) by investigating how pred…
The Two-infall Model Revisited: Constraints on Milky Way Bulge Assembly from >30,000 Galactic Chemical Evolution Models and Machine Learning
Niall Miller, Meridith Joyce, Christian I. Johnson +4
We constrain the formation history of the Milky Way bulge using a two-infall galactic chemical evolution (GCE) algorithm implemented in the N'OMEGA+ code. We recover a best-fit sce…
Improved thermonuclear rate of Ti(,)V and its astrophysical implication in rp-process
S. Q. Hou, C. Iliadis, M. Pignatari +4
Accurate Ti(,)V reaction rates are crucial for understanding the nucleosynthesis path of the rapid capture process (rp-process) that occurs in X-ray bursts. We…
Galactic chemical evolution of short-lived radioactive isotopes produced by explosive nucleosynthesis: Fe and Mn
Thomas C. L. Truemam, Andrés Yagüe López, Maria Lugaro +1
Several short-lived radionuclides (SLRs) are know to have existed in the early Solar System (ESS). These species, which typically decay with half-lives of the order of a few millio…
Using chemical evolution models of the Milky Way disk to constrain Type Ia supernova progenitors
T. C. L. Trueman, M. Pignatari, B. Cseh +3
Thermonuclear explosions of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs as Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play a significant role in the galactic chemical evolution (GCE) of the Milky Way. However, a…
