3 Dec 1996 | Subject: | astro-ph nucl-th | Abstract: | We use network calculations of r-process nucleosynthesis to explore the origin of the peak in the solar r-process abundance distribution near nuclear mass number A = 160. The peak is due to a subtle interplay of nuclear deformation and beta decay, and forms not in the steady phase of the r-process, but only just prior to freezeout, as the free neutrons rapidly disappear. Its existence should therefore help constrain the conditions under which the r-process occurs and freezes out. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9701007 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
