C., Beers, T. C., & Lugaro, M. (2023). The chemical evolution of the solar neighbourhood for planet-hosting stars. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 524(4), 6295-6330. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad2167

Theoretical physical-chemical models for the formation of planetary systems depend on data quality for the Sun's composition, that of stars in the solar neighbourhood, and of the estimated 'pristine' compositions for stellar systems. The effective sc... Read More about The chemical evolution of the solar neighbourhood for planet-hosting stars.

Progress on nuclear reaction rates affecting the stellar production of ²⁶Al (2023)
Journal Article
Laird, A. M., Lugaro, M., Kankainen, A., Adsley, P., Bardayan, D. W., Brinkman, H. E., Côté, B., Deibel, C. M., Diehl, R., Hammache, F., den Hartogh, J. W., José, J., Kurtulgil, D., Lederer-Woods, C., Lotay, G., Meynet, G., Palmerini, S., Pignatari, M., Reifarth, R., de Séréville, N., …Mengoni, A. (2023). Progress on nuclear reaction rates affecting the stellar production of 26Al. Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, 50(3), Article 033002. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6471/ac9cf8

The radioisotope 26Al is a key observable for nucleosynthesis in the Galaxy and the environment of the early Solar System. To properly interpret the large variety of astronomical and meteoritic data, it is crucial to understand both the nuclear react...

The RADIOSTAR Project (2022)
Journal Article
Lugaro, M., Côté, B., Pignatari, M., Yagüe López, A., Brinkman, H., Cseh, B., Den Hartogh, J., Doherty, C. L., Karakas, A. I., Kobayashi, C., Lawson, T., Pető, M., Soós, B., Trueman, T., & Világos, B. (2022). The RADIOSTAR Project. Universe, 8(2), Article 130. https://doi.org/10.3390/universe8020130

Radioactive nuclei are the key to understanding the circumstances of the birth of our Sun because meteoritic analysis has proven that many of them were present at that time. Their origin, however, has been so far elusive. The ERC-CoG-2016 RADIOSTAR p... Read More about The RADIOSTAR Project.

Galactic Chemical Evolution of Radioactive Isotopes with an s-process Contribution (2022)
Journal Article
Trueman, T. C. L., Côté, B., Yagüe López, A., Den Hartogh, J., Pignatari, M., Soós, B., Karakas, A. I., & Lugaro, M. (2022). Galactic Chemical Evolution of Radioactive Isotopes with an s-process Contribution. The Astrophysical journal, 924(1), 10. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ac31b0

Analysis of inclusions in primitive meteorites reveals that several short-lived radionuclides (SLRs) with half-lives of 0.1-100 Myr existed in the early solar system (ESS). We investigate the ESS origin of 107Pd, 135Cs, and 182Hf, which are produced... Read More about Galactic Chemical Evolution of Radioactive Isotopes with an s-process Contribution.

New Thermonuclear Rate of ⁷Li(d,n)2⁴He Relevant to the Cosmological Lithium Problem (2021)
Journal Article
Hou, S. Q., Kajino, T., Trueman, T. C., Pignatari, M., Luo, Y. D., & Bertulani, C. A. (2021). New Thermonuclear Rate of 7Li(d,n)24He Relevant to the Cosmological Lithium Problem. The Astrophysical journal, 920(2), Article 145. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ac1a11

Accurate 7Li(d,n)24He thermonuclear reaction rates are crucial for precise prediction of the primordial abundances of lithium and beryllium and to probe the mysteries beyond fundamental physics and the standard cosmological model. However, uncertaint... Read More about New Thermonuclear Rate of ⁷Li(d,n)2⁴He Relevant to the Cosmological Lithium Problem.
