  1. 6. Neutrino interactions and axion emission impact on core-collapse supernova simulations

    Author : Aurore Betranhandy; Evan O'Connor; Jeremiah Murphy; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Core-Collapse Supernovae; simulations; CCSN; PNS; neutrino; axion; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Abstract : Core-Collapse Supernovae (CCSNe) are important phenomena in the scope of nucleosynthesis and, as the final stage of massive stars' life, they are key processes in the understanding of stellar evolution. They also are the birthplace of neutron stars and black holes, therefore they play a major role in the modelling and understanding of compact object mergers. READ MORE

  2. 7. The Advanced Spectral Leakage (ASL) scheme for simulations of merging neutron stars

    Author : Davide Gizzi; Stephan Rosswog; Evan O'Connor; Albino Perego; Carla Fröhlich; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrodynamics; radiative transfer; neutrinos; stars: neutron; supernovae: general; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Abstract : The detection of a blue macronova following the event GW170817 has emphasized the role that neutrinos play in merging neutron stars. In particular, neutrinos are able to drive mass ejection, the so-called neutrino-driven winds, and change the neutron richness of the matter by absorption. READ MORE

  3. 8. On the Abundances of Li, Be and O in Metal-Poor Stars in the Galaxy

    Author : Ana Elia García Pérez; Martin Asplund; Bengt Gustafsson; Francesca Primas; Beatriz Barbuy; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Astronomy; galactic evolution; stellar abundances; stellar atmospheres; spectral line formation; stellar mixing; Astronomi; Astronomy and astrophysics; Astronomi och astrofysik;

    Abstract : Stellar atmospheres constitute excellent environments to study the chemical evolution of our Galaxy. The chemical composition of these atmospheres reflects the composition of the gas from where these stars were born. READ MORE

  4. 9. Galactic archaeology with metal-poor stars

    Author : Thomas Nordlander; Andreas J. Korn; Karin Lind; Ulrike Heiter; David L. Lambert; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stars: abundances; radiative transfer; stars: Population II; stars: Population III;

    Abstract : The chemical fingerprints of old, metal-poor stars can be used to unravel the events of the newborn Universe and help us understand the properties of the first stars and star clusters. The study of nearby stars to infer properties in the distant past is often referred to as Galactic archaeology. READ MORE

  5. 10. Exciting Neutron-rich Nuclei

    Author : Simon Lindberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RIKEN; GSI; Unbound States; FAIR; R3B; Radioactive Beams;

    Abstract : Atoms are the building blocks which make up our world. Their stability depends on the atomic nucleus, consisting of protons and neutrons. Nuclei are complex many-body quantum mechanical systems governed by the nucleon-nucleon interaction. READ MORE
