Weak Interactions and Transport in Neutron Star Mergers featuring Alexander Haber (TU Wien, Austria) (Opens in a new window)

Online

Seminars

Hosted by: Miquel Miravet Tenes (Universitat de València)

Abstract: Neutron star mergers are among the most extreme events in the Universe, providing a unique laboratory to study matter at densities and temperatures inaccessible on earth. While much of our understanding of these events relies on the properties of matter in equilibrium, the rapid dynamics of a merger can drive matter far from equilibrium.

Galactic Chemical Evolution of Short-lived Radioactive Isotopes Produced by Explosive Nucleosynthesis: 60Fe and 53Mn featuring Thomas Trueman (Konkoly Observatory) (Opens in a new window)

Online

Seminars

Hosted by: Taoyu Jiao (Konkoly Observatory)

Abstract: Galactic chemical evolution (GCE) provides a framework for connecting stellar nucleosynthesis to the chemical composition and evolution of the Milky Way. In this talk, I will introduce the basic concepts underlying GCE modelling, focusing on the OMEGA+ open-source code, which allows a large parameter space of different assumptions about Galactic evolution and stellar nucleosynthesis to be explored within a unified framework.

Nuclei in Cosmos XIX (Opens in a new window)

Santa Fe, NM, USA

Workshops & Conferences

Nuclear physics is the necessary link between astronomical observations, stellar models and galactic chemical evolution. The impressive progress in astrophysics during the last decades explaining and predicting astronomical scenarios was only possible because of the fruitful interplay between all disciplines. New insights in one field triggered new developments in the other fields. New experimental techniques are typically the response to new predictions and observations.
