Neutron-capture nucleosynthesis in AGB stars
Recent AGB models including diffusive overshoot or rotational effects suggest the partial mixing (PM) of protons from the H-rich envelope into the C-rich layers during the third dredge-up. In order to study the impact of such a mixing on the surface abundances, nucleosynthesis calculations based on stellar AGB models are performed for different assumptions of protons (ranging from Xmix p = 10 −...
متن کاملElectron Capture Rate in the Sun
For solar conditions, we numerically integrate the density matrix equation for a thermal electron in the field of a Be ion and other plasma ions and smeared-out electrons. Our results are in agreement with previous calculations that are based on a different physical picture, a picture which postulates the existence of distinct continuum and bound state orbits for electrons. The density matrix c...
متن کاملElectron-capture Supernovae as Sources of 60 Fe
We investigate the nucleosynthesis of the radionuclide Fe in electron-capture supernovae (ECSNe). The nucleosynthetic results are based on a self-consistent, two-dimensional simulation of an ECSN as well as models in which the densities are systematically increased by some factors (low-entropy models). Fe is found to be appreciably made in neutron-rich ejecta during the nuclear quasiequilibrium...
متن کاملELECTRON - CAPTURE SUPERNOVAE AS ORIGIN OF 48 Ca
We report that electron-capture supernovae (ECSNe), arising from collapsing oxygen-neonmagnesium cores, are a possible source of Ca, whose origin has remained a long-standing puzzle. Our two-dimensional, self-consistent explosion model of an ECSN predicts ejection of neutron-rich matter with electron fractions Ye ≈ 0.40–0.42 and relatively low entropies, s ≈ 13–15 kB per nucleon (kB is the Bolt...
متن کاملProbing Electron-capture Supernovae: X-ray Binaries in Starbursts
We develop population models of high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) formed after bursts of star formation and we investigate the effect of electron-capture supernovae (ECS) of massive ONeMg white dwarfs and the hypothesis that ECS events are associated with typically low supernova kicks imparted to the nascent neutron stars. We identify an interesting ECS bump in the time evolution of HMXB numbers...
