The goal of the Ariel space mission is to observe a large and diversified population of transiting planets around a range of host star types to collect information on their atmospheric composition. The planetary bulk and atmospheric compositions bear... Read More about Exploring the link between star and planet formation with Ariel.

New Experimental 23Na(α, p)26Mg Reaction Rate for Massive Star and Type Ia Supernova Models (2021)
Journal Article
Fynbo, H. O., Diget, C. A., Hubbard, N. J., Diget, C. A., Fox, S. P., Fynbo, H. O. U., …Tomlinson, J. R. (2021). New Experimental 23Na(α, p)26Mg Reaction Rate for Massive Star and Type Ia Supernova Models. The Astrophysical journal, 912(1), 59. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/abee91

The 23Na(α, p)26Mg reaction has been identified as having a significant impact on the nucleosynthesis of several nuclei between Ne and Ti in Type Ia supernovae, and of 23Na and 26Al in massive stars. The reaction has been subjected to renewed experim... Read More about New Experimental 23Na(α, p)26Mg Reaction Rate for Massive Star and Type Ia Supernova Models.

129I and 247Cm in meteorites constrain the last astrophysical source of solar r-process elements (2021)
Journal Article
Côté, B., Eichler, M., Yagüe, A., Vassh, N., R. Mumpower, M., Világos, B., …Lugaro, M. (2021). 129I and 247Cm in meteorites constrain the last astrophysical source of solar r-process elements. Science, 371(6532), 945-948. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aba1111

Meteoritic analysis demonstrates that radioactive nuclei heavier than iron were present in the early Solar System. Among them, $^{129}$I and $^{247}$Cm both have a rapid neutron-capture process ($r$ process) origin and decay on the same timescale ($\...
