    • Element synthesis in stars 

      Thielemann, Friedrich-Karl; Brachwitz, F.; Freiburghaus, C.; Kolbe, E.; Martinez-Pinedo, Gabriel; Rauscher, T.; Rembges, F.; Hix, W. R.; Liebendoerfer, M.; Mezzacappa, A.; Kratz, K.L.; Pfeiffer, B.; Langanke, K.; Nomoto, K.; Rosswog, S.; Schatz, H.; Wiescher, Michael (Elsevier, 2001)
      Except for H-1, H-2, He-3, He-4, and Li-7, originating from the Big Bang, all heavier elements are made in stellar evolution and stellar explosions. Nuclear physics, and in many cases nuclear structure far from stability, ...

    • Network calculations for r-process nucleosynthesis 

      Petermann, I.; Martinez-Pinedo, G.; Arcones, A.; Hix, W. R.; Kelic, A.; Langanke, K.; Panov, I.; Rauscher, T.; Schmidt, K-H; Thielemann, Friedrich-Karl; Zinner, N. (IOP Publishing Ltd., 2010)
      The r-process is known to be responsible for the synthesis of about half of the elements heavier than iron, nevertheless its astrophysical site has not yet been clearly ascertained, but observations indicate that at least ...

    • Nuclear cross sections, nuclear structure and stellar nucleosynthesis 

      Thielemann, Friedrich-Karl; Argast, D.; Brachwitz, F.; Hix, W. R.; Hoflich, P.; Liebendoerfer, M.; Martinez-Pinedo, G.; Mezzacappa, A.; Panov, I.; Rauscher, T. (2003-05-05)
      The role of nuclear reactions (strong, weak and electromagnetic) and nuclear structure effects are discussed in a number of stellar applications. We address fusion cross sections in stellar evolution, neutrino-induced ...

    • Production of intermediate-mass and heavy nuclei 

      Thielemann, Friedrich-Karl; Froehlich, Carla; Hirschi, R.; Liebendoerfer, M.; Dillmann, I.; Mocelj, D.; Rauscher, T.; Martinez-Pinedo, G.; Langanke, K.; Farouqi, K.; Kratz, K.L.; Pfeiffer, B.; Panov, I.; Nadyozhin, D. K.; Blinnikov, S.; Bravo, E.; Hix, W. R.; Hoflich, P.; Zinner, N. T. (Elsevier, 2007)
      Nucleosynthesis is the science related to all astrophysical processes which are responsible for the abundances of the elements and their isotopes in the universe. The astrophysical sites are the big bang and stellar objects. ...
