Nuclear fission reaction simulations in compact stars
Alex Deibel, M. E. Caplan, C. J. Horowitz
Type-Ia supernovae (SN Ia) are powerful stellar explosions that provide important distance indicators in cosmology. Recently, we proposed a new SN Ia mechanism that involves a nucl…
Carbon Isotope Ratios in M10 Giants
Z. G. Maas, J. M. Gerber, Alex Deibel +1
We measured carbon abundances and the ratio in 31 giant branch stars with previous CN and CH band measurements that span -2.33 M …
Direct Three-body Triple- in Helium Novae
Ryan Connolly, Alex Deibel, Edward F. Brown
In AM CVn binaries, a white dwarf primary accretes material from a helium-rich white dwarf or stellar companion. The unstable ignition of nuclear burning via the reaction in a…
Strong neutrino cooling by cycles of electron capture and decay in neutron star crusts
Hendrik Schatz, Sanjib Gupta, Peter Möller +9
The temperature in the crust of an accreting neutron star, which comprises its outermost kilometer, is set by heating from nuclear reactions at large densities, neutrino cooling, a…
