Oxygen isotopic ratio in open cluster RGB stars: A new method for accurate mass and age estimations
O. Straniero, C. Abia, I. Domínguez +1
Determining precise and homogeneous absolute ages of open clusters (OCs) remains a challenge in stellar astrophysics, mainly due to parameter degeneracies in photometric methods an…
A distance-independent constraint on the axion-electron coupling from RGB stars
Thomas Levasseur, Oscar Straniero, Andrea Caputo
Interest in axions and axion-like particles has resurged, driven by their role in solving the strong CP problem and their appeal as dark matter candidates. The luminosity of the ti…
s-process nucleosynthesis in low-mass AGB stars by the C(,n)O neutron source
Inma Domínguez, Carlos Abia, Maurizio Busso +2
In this review we outline our knowledge on slow neutron captures, concentrating on its main part occurring during the final stages of stellar evolution for low or intermediate-mass…
The COSMIC WISPers White Paper: The physics case for Weakly Interacting Slim Particles
Ariel Arza, Deniz Aybas, Shyam Balaji +124
Axions and other very weakly interacting slim particles (WISPs), with masses below 1 GeV, arise naturally in many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. In particula…
Detector characterization for a new C+C reaction study at LUNA
R. M. Gesùè, S. Turkat, J. Skowroński +50
The C+C fusion reaction plays a crucial role in stellar evolution, including the occurrence of supernova explosions, and in the synthesis of the chemical elements. Ho…
Nuclear Physics Mid Term Plan at LNGS
R. Buompane, F. Cavanna, C. Curceanu +59
The Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare-Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) is one of the largest underground physics laboratory, a very peculiar environment suited for ex…
