The r-process and neutrino-heated supernova ejecta
- S. Woosley, J. Wilson, G. Mathews, R. D. Hoffman, B. Meyer
- Physics
- 20 September 1994
As a neutron star is formed by the collapse of the iron core of a massive star, its Kelvin-Helmholtz evolution is characterized by the release of gravitational binding energy as neutrinos. The… Expand
Neutron capture elements in s-process-rich, very metal-poor stars
- W. Aoki, S. Ryan, +6 authors M. Fujimoto
- Physics
- 3 July 2001
We report abundance estimates for neutron capture elements, including lead (Pb), and nucleosynthesis models for their origin, in two carbon-rich, very metal-poor stars, LP 625-44 and LP 706-7. These… Expand
Observation of interstellar lithium in the low-metallicity Small Magellanic Cloud
- J. Howk, N. Lehner, B. Fields, G. Mathews
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 12 July 2012
The primordial abundances of light elements produced in the standard theory of Big Bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) depend only on the cosmic ratio of baryons to photons, a quantity inferred from… Expand
Mass-Radius Relation for Magnetic White Dwarfs
- I. Suh, G. Mathews
- Physics
- 14 June 1999
Recently, several white dwarfs with very strong surface magnetic fields have been observed. In this paper we explore the possibility that such stars could have sufficiently strong internal fields to… Expand
The r-Process in Neutrino-driven Winds from Nascent, ``Compact'' Neutron Stars of Core-Collapse Supernovae
- S. Wanajo, T. Kajino, G. Mathews, K. Otsuki
- Physics
- 15 February 2001
We present calculations of r-process nucleosynthesis in neutrino-driven winds from the nascent neutron stars of core-collapse supernovae. A full dynamical reaction network for both the α-rich… Expand
Flash-Driven Convective Mixing in Low-Mass, Metal-deficient Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars: A New Paradigm for Lithium Enrichment and a Possible s-Process
- N. Iwamoto, T. Kajino, G. Mathews, M. Fujimoto, W. Aoki
- Physics
- 10 February 2004
We have calculated models for low-mass, metal-deficient ([Fe/H] = -2.7) stars from the zero-age main sequence through the thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) phase. We confirm that the… Expand
Probing the early universe: A Review of primordial nucleosynthesis beyond the standard Big Bang
- R. Malaney, R. Malaney, G. Mathews
- Physics
- 1 July 1993
Abstract The scientific literature is rich with studies of non-standard primodial nucleosynthesis. We review a number of these variants on the simplest standard big bang (SBB) nucleosynthesis model… Expand
Relativistic Numerical Hydrodynamics
- J. Wilson, G. Mathews
- Physics
- 8 December 2003
Preface 1. Introduction 2. Special relativistic hydrodynamics 3. General relativistic hydrodynamics 4. Cosmological hydrodynamics 5. Stellar collapse and supernovae 6. Axially symmetric relativistic… Expand
Inhomogenous Chemical Evolution of the Galactic Disk
- D. Clayton, G. Malinie, D. Hartmann, G. Mathews
- Physics
- 20 August 1993
We present analytical models for inhomogeneous chemical evolution (ICE) of systems in which the star formation history resembles a series of bursts, localized in space and/or time, with intermittent… Expand
Production of Li, Be \& B from Baryon Inhomogeneous Primordial Nucleosynthesis
- D. Thomas, D. Schramm, K. Olive, G. Mathews, B. Meyer, B. Fields
- Physics
- 20 August 1993
We investigate the possibility that inhomogeneous nucleosynthesis may eventually be used to explain the abundances of \li6, \be9 and B in population II stars. The present work differs from previous… Expand
