Elemental and Isotopic Yields from T Coronae Borealis: Predictions and Uncertainties
Emma Wallace, Christian Iliadis, Sumner Starrfield
T Coronae Borealis (T CrB) is a symbiotic recurrent nova system expected to undergo its next outburst within the next two years. Recent hydrodynamic simulations have predicted the…
Low-metallicity nova explosions: a site for weak rp-process nucleosynthesis
Athanasios Psaltis, Jordi José, Richard Longland +1
Classical novae are common cataclysmic events involving a binary system of a white dwarf and a main sequence or red giant companion star. In metal-poor environments, these explosio…
Deciphering Spin-Parity Assignments of Nuclear Levels
Christian Iliadis
Spin-parity assignments of nuclear levels are critical for understanding nuclear structure and reactions. However, inconsistent notation conventions and ambiguous reporting in rese…
Hydrodynamic Predictions for the Next Outburst of T Coronae Borealis: It will be the Brightest Classical or Recurrent Nova Ever Observed in X-rays
S. Starrfield, M. Bose, C. E. Woodward +11
T Coronae Borealis (TCrB) is a recurrent nova (RN) with recorded outbursts in 1866, and 1946 and possible outbursts in 1217 and 1787. It is predicted to explode again in 2025 or 20…
