Probing the Production of Actinides under Different r-process Conditions
(2019-07-01)
Several extremely metal-poor stars are known to have an enhanced thorium abundance. These actinide-boost stars have likely inherited material from an r-process that operated under different conditions than the r-process ...
The Role of Fission in Neutron Star Mergers and Its Impact on the r-Process Peaks
(2015-07-15)
Comparing observational abundance features with nucleosynthesis predictions of stellar evolution or explosion simulations, we can scrutinize two aspects: (a) the conditions in the astrophysical production site and (b) the ...
