    • The importance of parity-dependence of the nuclear level density in the prediction of astrophysical reaction rates 

      Mocelj, D.; Rauscher, T.; Martinez-Pinedo, Gabriel; Alhassid, Y. (World Scientific Publishing, 2003)
      A simple description for obtaining the parity distribution of nuclear levels in the pf + g(9/2) shell as a function of excitation energy was recently derived. We implement this in a global nuclear level density model. In ...
    • Nuclear physics issues of the r-process 

      Thielemann, Friedrich-Karl; Kolbe, E.; Martinez-Pinedo, G.; Panov, I.; Rauscher, T.; Kratz, K.L.; Pfeiffer, B.; Rosswog, S. (World Scientific Publishing, 2003)
      The present paper aims at understanding r-process nucleosynthesis by addressing the nuclear physics involved, the necessary environment conditions in the (stellar) production sites, and the observational constraints. We ...
    • Reaction rates and nuclear properties relevant for nucleosynthesis in massive stars and far from stability 

      Rauscher, T.; Froehlich, Carla; Guber, K. H. (World Scientific Publishing, 2003)
      Explosive nuclear burning in astrophysical environments produces unstable nuclei which again can be targets for subsequent reactions. In addition, it involves a large number of stable nuclides which are not fully explored ...
    • Se(p,gamma) cross section measurements for p-process studies 

      Gyurky, Gy.; Fulop, Zs.; Somorjai, E.; Kokkoris, M.; Galanopulos, S.; Demetriou, P.; Harissopulos, S.; Goriely, S.; Rauscher, T. (World Scientific Publishing, 2003)
      As a continuation of a systematic study of reactions relevant to astrophysical p-process, the (p,gamma) or (p,n) cross sections of three Se isotopes have been measured using an activation technique in the proton energy ...
