FRIB and the GW170817 Kilonova
A. Aprahamian, R. Surman, A. Frebel +45
In July 2018 an FRIB Theory Alliance program was held on the implications of GW170817 and its associated kilonova for r-process nucleosynthesis. Topics of discussion included the a…
Polycrystalline Crusts in Accreting Neutron Stars
M. E. Caplan, Andrew Cumming, D. K. Berry +2
The crust of accreting neutron stars plays a central role in many different observational phenomena. In these stars, heavy elements produced by H-He burning in the rapid proton cap…
Crust breaking and the limiting rotational frequency of neutron stars
F. J. Fattoyev, C. J. Horowitz, Hao Lu
The limiting rotational frequency of neutron stars may be determined by the strength of their crusts. As a star spins up from accretion, centrifugal forces will cause the crust to…
