Primordial Nucleosynthesis: Successes and Challenges
Primordial nucleosynthesis provides a probe of the Universe during its early evolution. Given the progress exploring the constituents, structure, and recent evolution of the Universe, it is timely to review the status of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) and to confront its predictions, and the constraints which emerge from them, with those derived from independent observations of the Universe at ...
متن کاملAdvances in r-Process Nucleosynthesis
During the last several decades, there have been a number of advances in understanding the rapid neutron-capture process (i.e., the r-process). These advances include large quantities of high-resolution spectroscopic abundance data of neutron-capture elements, improved astrophysical models, and increasingly more precise nuclear and atomic physics data. The elemental abundances of the heavy neut...
متن کاملPrimordial Black Holes and r-Process Nucleosynthesis.
We show that some or all of the inventory of r-process nucleosynthesis can be produced in interactions of primordial black holes (PBHs) with neutron stars (NSs) if PBHs with masses 10^{-14} M_{⊙}<M_{PBH}<10^{-8} M_{⊙} make up a few percent or more of dark matter. A PBH captured by a NS sinks to the center of the NS and consumes it from the inside. When this occurs in a rotating millisecond-pe...
متن کاملNeutrino-Driven Jets and Rapid-Process Nucleosynthesis
We have studied whether the jet in a collapse-driven supernova can be a key process for the rapid-process (r-process) nucleosynthesis. We have examined the features of a steady, subsonic, and rigidly rotating jet in which the centrifugal force is balanced by the magnetic force. As for the models in which the magnetic field is weak and angular velocity is small, we found that the r-process does ...
متن کاملNeutrino Capture and r-Process Nucleosynthesis
We explore neutrino capture during r-process nucleosynthesis in neutrinodriven ejecta from nascent neutron stars. We focus on the interplay between charged-current weak interactions and element synthesis, and we delineate the important role of equilibrium nuclear dynamics. During the period of coexistence of free nucleons and light and/or heavy nuclei, electron neutrino capture inhibits the r-p...
