The nuclear reaction network WinNet

M. Reichert, C. Winteler, O. Korobkin +13

We present the state-of-the-art single-zone nuclear reaction network WinNet that is capable of calculating the nucleosynthetic yields of a large variety of astrophysical environmen…

The role of weak interactions in dynamic ejecta from binary neutron star mergers

D. Martin, A. Perego, W. Kastaun +1

Weak reactions are critical for the neutron richness of the matter dynamically ejected after the merger of two neutron stars. The neutron richness, defined by the electron fraction…

On r-process nucleosynthesis from matter ejected in binary neutron starmergers

Luke Bovard, Dirk Martin, Federico Guercilena +3

When binary systems of neutron stars merge, a very small fraction of their rest mass is ejected, either dynamically or secularly. This material is neutron-rich and its nucleosynthe…

Test of the Brink-Axel hypothesis for the pygmy dipole resonance

D. Martin, P. von Neumann-Cosel, A. Tamii +22

The gamma strength function and level density of 1- states in 96Mo have been extracted from a high-resolution study of the (p,p') reaction at 295 MeV and extreme forward angles. By…

Impact of nuclear mass uncertainties on the -process

Dirk Martin, Almudena Arcones, Witold Nazarewicz +1

Nuclear masses play a fundamental role in understanding how the heaviest elements in the Universe are created in the -process. We predict -process nucleosynthesis yields usin…

Nucleosynthesis in the Ejecta of Neutron Star Mergers

Dirk Martin, Albino Perego, Almudena Arcones +2

Heavy elements like gold, platinum or uranium are produced in the r-process, which needs neutron-rich and explosive environments. Neutron star mergers are a promising candidate for…
