We generate a new complete equation of state (EOS) of nuclear matter for a wide range of temperatures, densities, and proton fractions ready for use in astrophysical simulations of supernovae and neutron star mergers. Our previous two…
The self-energy corrections to the hyperfine splitting is evaluated for higher excited states in hydrogenlike ions, using an expansion in the binding parameter Zalpha, where Z is the nuclear charge number, and alpha is the fine-structure…
Multi-zone chemical evolution models (CEMs), differing in the nucleosynthesis prescriptions (yields) and prescriptions of star formation, have been computed for the Milky Way. All models fit the observed O/H and Fe/H gradients well and…
Hagedorn states (HS) are a tool to model the hadronization process which occurs in the phase transition phase between the quark gluon plasma (QGP) and the hadron resonance gas (HRG). Their abundance is believed to appear near the Hagedorn…
We propose a one-shot mechanism for high-energy cosmic ray generation by a neutron star falling into a black hole surrounded by low density plasma. The function of the black hole in this scenario is to accelerate the star to a speed…
The CH$^+$ ion is a key species in the initial steps of interstellar carbon chemistry. Its formation in diverse environments where it is observed is not well understood, however, because the main production pathway is so endothermic (4280…
The $^{12}$C nucleus with $N$=6 and $Z$=6 is a doubly closed-shell nucleus in a toroidal potential. In the description of the ground state and the Hoyle state of $^{12}$C in the resonating group method or the generator coordinate method, a…
Formaldehyde (H$_2$CO) is an important precursor to organics like methanol (CH$_3$OH). It is important to understand the conditions that produce H$_2$CO and prebiotic molecules during star and planet formation. H$_2$CO possesses both…
Opacity is an important ingredient of the evolution of stars. The calculation of opacity coefficients is complicated by the fact that the plasma contains partially ionized heavy ions that contribute to opacity dominated by H and He. Up to…
There has been a long debate on the stable phase of iron under the Earth's inner core conditions. Because of the solid-liquid coexistence at the inner core boundary, the thermodynamic stability of solid phases directly relates to their…
Low-mass stars, ~1-2 solar masses, near the Main Sequence are efficient at producing 3He, which they mix into the convective envelope on the giant branch and distribute into the Galaxy by way of envelope loss. This process is so efficient…
We explore a mechanism, entirely new to the fast solar wind, of electron heating by lower hybrid waves to explain the shift to higher charge states observed in various elements in the fast wind at 1 A.U. relative to the original coronal…
An attempt is made here to revisit structure formation in a proto-stellar cloud during the early phase of evolution. Molecular cloud subjected to a set of various initial conditions in terms of initial temperature and amplitude of azimuthal…
The carbon isotope ratio is a powerful tool for studying the evolution of stellar systems. Recent detections of CO isotopologues in disks and exoplanet atmospheres pointed towards significant fractionation in these systems. In order to…
The first stars, galaxies, star clusters, and direct-collapse black holes are expected to have formed in low-mass ($\sim$$10^{5}-10^{9} ~ M_{\odot}$) haloes at Cosmic Dawn ($z \sim 10 - 30$) under conditions of efficient gas cooling,…
We introduce a new model for the Carbon-12 nucleus and compute its lowest energy levels. Our model is inspired by previous work on the rigid body approximation in the $B=12$ sector of the Skyrme model. We go beyond this approximation and…
In this comment, we argue that the recent experiment of Ketterle and co-workers does not necessarily need to be interpreted as indicating that the true scattering amplitude between two molecules becomes small (8 nm measured vs. 120 nm…
We present a model atom for C I - C II - C III - C IV using the most up-to-date atomic data and evaluated the non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) line formation in classical 1D atmospheric models of O-B-type stars. Our models predict…
In big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN), the deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion reaction, D(T,n)$\alpha$, enhanced by the 3/2$^+$ resonance, is responsible for 99% of primordial $^4$He. This has been known for decades and has been well documented in…
For $^{12}$C and $^{16}$O, rotating models predict in general enhanced yields. At high metallicity, the carbon and oxygen yields from the very high mass stars, which go through a WR phase, are little affected by rotation. For $^{14}$N,…
