Presolar Silicon Carbide Grains of Types Y and Z: Their Molybdenum Isotopic Compositions and Stellar Origins

Nan Liu, Thomas Stephan, Sergio Cristallo +8

We report Mo isotopic compositions of 37 presolar SiC grains of types Y (19) and Z (18), rare types commonly argued to have formed in lower-than-solar metallicity asymptotic giant…

Common Occurrence of Explosive Hydrogen Burning in Type II Supernovae

Nan Liu, Thomas Stephan, Patrick Boehnke +6

We report Mo isotopic data for 16 15N-rich presolar SiC grains of type AB (14N/15N<solar, AB1) and their correlated Sr and Ba isotope ratios when available. Eight of the 16 AB1 gra…

J-type carbon stars: A dominant source of 14N-rich presolar SiC grains of type AB

Nan Liu, Thomas Stephan, Patrick Boehnke +6

We report Mo isotopic data of 27 new presolar SiC grains, including 12 14N-rich AB (14N/15N>440, AB2) and 15 mainstream (MS) grains, and their correlated Sr and Ba isotope ratios w…

Analysis of Nb3Sn surface layers for superconducting RF cavity applications

Chaoyue Becker, Samuel Posen, Nickolas Groll +7

We present an analysis of the Nb3Sn surface layers grown on a bulk niobium (Nb) coupon prepared at the same time and by the same vapor diffusion process used to make Nb3Sn coatings…

The -pockets in AGB Stars and Their Fingerprints in Mainstream SiC Grains

Nan Liu, Andrew M. Davis, Roberto Gallino +5

We identify three isotopic tracers that can be used to constrain the -pocket and show the correlated isotopic ratios of Sr and Ba in single mainstream presolar SiC grains.…

Correlated Strontium and Barium Isotopic Compositions of Acid-Cleaned Single Silicon Carbides from Murchison

Nan Liu, Michael R. Savina, Roberto Gallino +8

We present strontium, barium, carbon, and silicon isotopic compositions of 61 acid-cleaned presolar SiC grains from Murchison. Comparison with previous data shows that acid washing…
