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.

Comparison between Core-collapse Supernova Nucleosynthesis and Meteoric Stardust Grains: Investigating Magnesium, Aluminium, and Chromium (2022)
Journal Article
Den Hartogh, J., Petö, M. K., Lawson, T., Sieverding, A., Brinkman, H., Pignatari, M., & Lugaro, M. (2022). Comparison between Core-collapse Supernova Nucleosynthesis and Meteoric Stardust Grains: Investigating Magnesium, Aluminium, and Chromium. The Astrophysical journal, 927(2), Article 220. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ac4965

Isotope variations of nucleosynthetic origin among solar system solid samples are well documented, yet the origin of these variations is still uncertain. The observed variability of 54Cr among materials formed in different regions of the protoplaneta...

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., …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.
