Pulse Profile Modelling of Thermonuclear Burst Oscillations II: Handling variability
Yves Kini, Tuomo Salmi, Serena Vinciguerra +6
Pulse profile modelling is a relativistic ray-tracing technique that can be used to infer masses, radii and geometric parameters of neutron stars. In a previous study, we looked at…
Pulse Profile Modeling of Thermonuclear Burst Oscillations I: The Effect of Neglecting Variability
Yves Kini, Tuomo Salmi, Anna L. Watts +6
We study the effects of the time-variable properties of thermonuclear X-ray bursts on modeling their millisecond-period burst oscillations. We apply the pulse profile modeling tech…
Urca Nuclide Production in Type-I X-ray Bursts and Implications for Nuclear Physics Studies
Grant Merz, Zach Meisel
The thermal structure of accreting neutron stars is affected by the presence of urca nuclei in the neutron star crust. Nuclear isobars harboring urca nuclides can be produced in th…
Sensitivity of Ti and Ni production in CCSN shock-driven nucleosynthesis to reaction rates
Shiv K. Subedi, Zach Meisel, Grant Merz
Recent observational advances have enabled high resolution mapping of Ti in core-collapse supernova (CCSN) remnants. Comparisons between observations and models provide st…
Crust Cooling Models are Insensitive to the Crust-Core Transition Pressure for Realistic Equations of State
Sudhanva Lalit, Zach Meisel, Edward F. Brown
Neutron stars cooling after sustained accretion outbursts provide unique information about the neutron star crust and underlying dense matter. Comparisons between astronomical obse…
Catching Element Formation In The Act
Chris L. Fryer, Frank Timmes, Aimee L. Hungerford +216
Gamma-ray astronomy explores the most energetic photons in nature to address some of the most pressing puzzles in contemporary astrophysics. It encompasses a wide range of objects…
