At finite temperatures ($\geq 10^7$K), $^{76}$Se is abundant in the core of massive stars and electron capture on $^{76}$Se has a consequential role to play in the dynamics of core collapse. The present work may be classified into two main…
The Gamow-Teller (GT) transition is inarguably one of the most important nuclear weak transitions of the spin-isosopin $\sigma\tau$ type. It has many applications in nuclear and astrophysics. These include, but are not limited to, r-process…
Searches of neutrinoless double-beta decay require information on the value of the nuclear matrix elements that rule the process to plan and interpret experiments. At present, however, even the matrix elements obtained with the most…

Electron captures on nuclei play an important role in the collapse of stellar core in the stages leading to a type-II supernova. Recent observations of subluminous Type II-P supernovae (e.g. 2005cs, 2003gd, 1999br) were able to rekindle the…
