R-process nucleosynthesis calculations with complete nuclear physics input
I. Petermann, A. Arcones, A. Kelić +8
The r-process constitutes one of the major challenges in nuclear astrophysics. Its astrophysical site has not yet been identified but there is observational evidence suggesting tha…
NuGrid: s process in massive stars
Raphael Hirschi, Urs Frischknecht, F. -K. Thielemann +10
The s-process production in massive stars at very low metallicities is expected to be negligible due to the low abundance of the neutron source 22Ne, to primary neutron poisons and…
Signals of the QCD phase transition in core-collapse supernovae
I. Sagert, M. Hempel, G. Pagliara +5
We explore the implications of the QCD phase transition during the postbounce evolution of core-collapse supernovae. Using the MIT bag model for the description of quark matter and…
Angular momentum transport during X-ray bursts on neutron stars: a numerical general relativistic hydrodynamical study
A. Hujeirat, F. -K. Thielemann
The distribution of angular momentum of the matter during X-ray bursts on neutron stars is studied by means of 3D axi-symmetric general relativistic hydrodynamics. The set of fully…
The neutrino signal from protoneutron star accretion and black hole formation
T. Fischer, S. C. Whitehouse, A. Mezzacappa +2
We discuss the formation of stellar mass black holes via protoneutron star (PNS) collapse. In the absence of an earlier explosion, the PNS collapses to a black hole due to the cont…
Stellar Evolution in the Early Universe
R. Hirschi, U. Frischknecht, F. -K. Thielemann +5
Massive stars played a key role in the early evolution of the Universe. They formed with the first halos and started the re-ionisation. It is therefore very important to understand…
New Stellar Cross Sections and The "Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of Nucleosynthesis in Stars"
I. Dillmann, R. Plag, C. Domingo-Pardo +4
Since April 2005 a regularly updated stellar neutron cross section compilation is available online at http://nuclear-astrophysics.fzk.de/kadonis. This online-database is called the…
-Process simulations with a modified reaction library
I. Dillmann, T. Rauscher, M. Heil +3
We have performed -process simulations with the most recent stellar cross sections from the "Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of Nucleosynthesis in Stars" project (versi…
(n,) Cross Sections of Light p Nuclei -- Towards an Updated Database for the p Process
I. Dillmann, M. Heil, F. Käppeler +3
The nucleosynthesis of elements beyond iron is dominated by the s and r processes. However, a small amount of stable isotopes on the proton-rich side cannot be made by neutron capt…
KADoNiS- The Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of Nucleosynthesis in Stars
I. Dillmann, M. Heil, F. Käppeler +3
The "Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of Nucleosynthesis in Stars" (KADoNiS) project is an online database for experimental cross sections relevant to the s process and p process.…
Experimental (n,) cross sections of the p-process nuclei Se and Sr
I. Dillmann, M. Heil, F. Käppeler +2
The nucleosynthesis of elements beyond iron is dominated by the s and r processes. However, a small amount of stable isotopes on the proton-rich side cannot be made by neutron capt…
