Study of the Mg waiting point relevant for x-ray burst nucleosynthesis via the Mg(,)Al reaction
H. Jayatissa, M. L. Avila, K. E. Rehm +13
The Mg(,)Al reaction rate has been identified as a major source of uncertainty for understanding the nucleosynthesis flow in Type-I x-ray bursts (XRBs). We repo…
Measurements of the Thick Target Yield Near Threshold
K. Brandenburg, G. Hamad, Z. Meisel +11
We present results from direct measurements of the thick target yield from laboratory incident energies 35~MeV, performed with the HeBF$_…
Measurements of the Zr(,n)Mo cross section for astrophysics and applications
Gula Hamad, Kristyn Brandenburg, Zach Meisel +9
The reaction Zr(,n)Mo plays an important role in -driven wind nucleosynthesis in core-collapse supernovae and is a possible avenue for medical isotope productio…
Constraining Accreted Neutron Star Crust Shallow Heating with the Inferred Depth of Carbon Ignition in X-ray Superbursts
Zach Meisel
Evidence has accumulated for an as-yet unaccounted for source of heat located at shallow depths within the accreted neutron star crust. However, the nature of this heat source is u…
Horizons: Nuclear Astrophysics in the 2020s and Beyond
H. Schatz, A. D. Becerril Reyes, A. Best +162
Nuclear Astrophysics is a field at the intersection of nuclear physics and astrophysics, which seeks to understand the nuclear engines of astronomical objects and the origin of the…
Zn -delayed proton emission establishes the Ni -process waiting point bypass
M. Saxena, W. -J Ong, Z. Meisel +32
We measured the Zn -delayed proton (p) and emission at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. We find a Zn half-life of 43.6 0.2 ms, p…
