We update the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) calculations on the basis of the recent NACRE compilation of reaction rates. In particular, we calculate the uncertainties related to the nuclear reaction rates on the abundances of 7Li and…
Stars are gravitationally stabilized fusion reactors changing their chemical composition while transforming light atomic nuclei into heavy ones. The atomic nuclei are supposed to be in thermal equilibrium with the ambient plasma. The…
Short-lived radioactive nuclei (SLR) with mean lives below 100 Myr provide us with unique insights into current galactic nucleosynthetic events, as well as events that contributed to the material of our Solar System more that 4.6 Gyr ago.…
A simple description for obtaining the parity distribution of nuclear levels in the pf + g9/2 shell as a function of excitation energy was recently derived. We implement this in a global nuclear level density model. In the framework of the…
Using mock spectra based on Vazdekis/MILES library fitted within the wavelength region 3600-7350\AA, we analyze the bias and scatter on the resulting physical parameters induced by the choice of fitting algorithms and observational…
We survey the current situation regarding chemical modelling of the synthesis of molecules in the interstellar medium. The present state of knowledge concerning the rate coefficients and their uncertainties for the major gas-phase processes…
Accurate $^{42}$Ti($p$,$\gamma$)$^{43}$V reaction rates are crucial for understanding the nucleosynthesis path of the rapid capture process (rp-process) that occurs in X-ray bursts. We aim to improve the thermonuclear rates of…
Radionuclide identification is a radioanalytical method employed in various scientific disciplines that utilize alpha-particle or gamma-ray spectrometric assays, ranging from astrophysics to nuclear medicine. Radionuclide libraries in…
High-precision stellar mass and radius measured directly from binaries can effectively calibrate the stellar models. However, such a database containing full spectral types and large range of metallicity is still not fully established. A…
Photodisintegration reaction rates involving charged particles are of relevance to the p-process nucleosynthesis that aims at explaining the production of the stable neutron-deficient nuclides heavier than iron. In this study, the cross…
Short-lived radioactive nulcei (half-life $\tau_{1/2}\sim1$ Myr) influence the formation of stars and planetary systems by providing sources of heating and ionization. Whereas many previous studies have focused on the possible nuclear…
pynucastro is a python library that provides visualization and analyze techniques to classify, construct, and evaluate nuclear reaction rates and networks. It provides tools that allow users to determine the importance of each rate in the…
The electron capture process plays an important role in the evolution of the core collapse of a massive star that precedes the supernova explosion. In this study, the electron capture on nuclei in stellar environment is described in the…
We propose a $(p,xn)$ mechanism with dynamic production as a new set of nuclear reactions that could produce high density neutrons and explain the r- and rp-elements. We calculate the rate of thorium and uranium produced by our proposed…
The interiors of neutron stars reach densities and temperatures beyond the limits of terrestrial experiments, providing vital laboratories for probing nuclear physics. While the star's interior is not directly observable, its pressure and…
The prediction of cross sections for nuclei far off stability is crucial in the field of nuclear astrophysics. We discuss the model mostly employed for such calculations: the statistical model (Hauser-Feshbach). Special emphasis is put on…
Dramatically increasing data volumes are forcing astronomers to adopt automated methods for the identification and classification of astronomical objects. Although deep-learning models are often well-suited to this task, obtaining a measure…
The $p$ process nucleosynthesis is responsible for the synthesis of 35 neutron-deficient nuclei from $^{35}$Se to $^{196}$Hg. An important input that can affect the modeling of this process is the nuclear level density at the relevant…
In this work, we compute rates of merging neutron stars (MNS) in galaxies of different morphological type, as well as the cosmic MNS rate in a unitary volume of the Universe adopting different cosmological scenarios. Our aim is to provide…
The observable consequences of a nova outburst depend sensitively on the details of the thermonuclear runaway which initiates the outburst. One of the more important sources of uncertainty is the nuclear reaction data used as input for the…
