Chemical evolution of fluorine in the Milky Way (2022)
Journal Article
Womack, K., Vincenzo, F., Gibson, B., Côté, B., Pignatari, M., Brinkman, H. E., …Karakas, A. (2023). Chemical evolution of fluorine in the Milky Way. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 518(1), 1543-1556. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac3180

Fluorine has many different potential sites and channels of production, making narrowing down a dominant site of fluorine production particularly challenging. In this work, we investigate which sources are the dominant contributors to the galactic fl... Read More about Chemical evolution of fluorine in the Milky Way.

Horizons: nuclear astrophysics in the 2020s and beyond (2022)
Journal Article
Schatz, H., Becerril Reyes, A. D., Best, A., Brown, E. F., Chatziioannou, K., Chipps, K. A., …Pignatari, M. (2022). Horizons: nuclear astrophysics in the 2020s and beyond. Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, 49(11), Article 110502. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6471/ac8890

Nuclear astrophysics is a field at the intersection of nuclear physics and astrophysics, which seeks to understand the nuclear engines of astronomical objects and the origin of the chemical elements. This white paper summarizes progress and status of... Read More about Horizons: nuclear astrophysics in the 2020s and beyond.

Formation and Morphology of the First Galaxies in the Cosmic Morning (2022)
Journal Article
Park, C., Lee, J., Kim, J., Jeong, D., Pichon, C., Gibson, B. K., …Few, C. G. (2022). Formation and Morphology of the First Galaxies in the Cosmic Morning. The Astrophysical journal, 937(1), https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ac85b5

We investigate the formation and morphological evolution of the first galaxies in the cosmic morning (10 ≳ z ≳ 4) using the Horizon Run 5 (HR5) simulation. For galaxies above the stellar mass M ⋆ , min = 2 × 10 9 M ⊙ , we classify them into disk, sph... Read More about Formation and Morphology of the First Galaxies in the Cosmic Morning.

A Large-scale Approach to Modeling Molecular Biosignatures: The Diatomics (2022)
Journal Article
Cross, T. M., Benoit, D. M., Pignatari, M., & Gibson, B. K. (2022). A Large-scale Approach to Modeling Molecular Biosignatures: The Diatomics. The Astrophysical journal, 925(1), Article 57. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ac3976

This work presents the first steps to modeling synthetic rovibrational spectra for all molecules of astrophysical interest using a new approach implemented in the Prometheus code. The goal is to create a new comprehensive source of first-principles m... Read More about A Large-scale Approach to Modeling Molecular Biosignatures: The Diatomics.
