The astrophysical r-process : A comparison of calculations following adiabatic expansion with classical calculations based on neutron densities and temperatures
(1999-05-01)
The rapid neutron-capture process (r-process) encounters unstable nuclei far from beta-stability. Therefore its observable features, like the abundances, witness (still uncertain) nuclear structure as well as the conditions ...
Astrophysical and nuclear physics aspects of the r-process
(World Scientific Publishing, 1998)
The formation of elements as heavy as Th and U and beyond is due to the rapid neutron-capture process (r-process), which causes the production of highly unstable nuclei near the neutron drip-line and functions via neutron ...
Explosive nucleosynthesis and the astrophysical r-process
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 1998)
We give an overview of chemical equilibria in explosive burning and the role which neutron and/or proton separation energies play. We focus then on the rapid neutron-capture process (r-process) which encounters unstable ...
