Astromers: Status and Prospects
G. Wendell Misch, Matthew R. Mumpower
The extreme temperatures and densities of many astrophysical environments tends to destabilize nuclear isomers by inducing transitions to higher energy states. Those states may the…
Astromers: Nuclear Isomers in Astrophysics
G. Wendell Misch, Surja K. Ghorui, Projjwal Banerjee +2
We develop a method to compute thermally-mediated transition rates between the ground state and long-lived isomers in nuclei. We also establish criteria delimiting a thermalization…
Nuclear neutrino energy spectra in high temperature astrophysical environments
G. Wendell Misch, George M. Fuller
Astrophysical environments that reach temperatures greater than 100 keV can have significant neutrino energy loss via both plasma processes and nuclear weak interactions. We…
Modification of the Brink-Axel Hypothesis for High Temperature Nuclear Weak Interactions
G. Wendell Misch, George M. Fuller, B. Alex Brown
We present shell model calculations of electron capture strength distributions in A=28 nuclei and computations of the corresponding capture rates in supernova core conditions. We f…
