Resolving Deep-Water Channel Architectures: High-Resolution Forward Seismic Modeling of Turbidite Systems, Ainsa II Channel, Campodarbe Group, Northern Spain (2008)
Presentation / Conference

Turbidite channel systems are a common target in exploring for petroleum reservoirs though their internal architectures can be highly varied. To investigate channel architectures in turbidite systems, the spectacularly exposed, Ainsa II channel in th...

Facies characteristics in a semi-confined basin: from high net:gross channelized sheets to lower net:gross onlap margins. Grand Coyer basin, SE France (2008)
Presentation / Conference

Common stratigraphic-trap reservoirs in the Gulf of Mexico and along the margins of the Atlantic are found within channelized (e.g., Tahoe) or basin margin settings (e.g., Auger, Mars). These are frequently within small, structurally controlled and t...

Resolving Deep-Water Channel Architectures: Forward Seismic Modeling of Turbidite Systems, Ainsa II Channel, Campodarbe Group, northern Spain. (2008)
Presentation / Conference

With deep-water basins becoming mature exploration areas, and the number of undrilled structural traps diminishing, stratigraphic traps are growing increasingly important. Onlapping turbidite sands are a common stratigraphic trap type in confined bas...

Complete nucleosynthesis calculations for low-mass stars from NuGrid (2008)
Presentation / Conference

Many nucleosynthesis and mixing processes of low-mass stars as they evolve from the Main Sequence to the thermal-pulse Asymptotic Giant Branch phase (TP-AGB) are well understood (although of course important physics components, e.g. rotation, magneti...

Nucleosynthesis Calculations from Core-Collapse Supernovae (2008)
Presentation / Conference

We review some of the uncertainties in calculating nucleosynthetic yields, focusing on the explosion mechanism. Current yield calculations tend to either use a piston, energy injection, or enhancement of neutrino opacities to drive an explosion. We s...

The impact of stellar rotation on the CNO abundance patterns in the Milky Way at low metallicities (2008)
Presentation / Conference

We investigate the effect of new stellar models, which take rotation into account, computed for very low metallicities on the chemical evolution of the earliest phases of the Milky Way. We check the impact of these new stellar yields on a model for t... Read More about The impact of stellar rotation on the CNO abundance patterns in the Milky Way at low metallicities.

Nucleosynthetic Yields from "Collapsars" (2008)
Presentation / Conference

The "collapsar" engine for gamma-ray bursts invokes as its energy source the failure of a normal supernova and the formation of a black hole. Here we present the results of the first three-dimensional simulation of the collapse of a massive star down... Read More about Nucleosynthetic Yields from "Collapsars".

NuGrid: Toward High Precision Double-Degenerate Merger Simulations with SPH in 3D (2008)
Presentation / Conference

We present preliminary results from recent high-resolution double-degenerate merger simulations with the Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) technique. We put particular emphasis on verification and validation in our effort and show the importance of... Read More about NuGrid: Toward High Precision Double-Degenerate Merger Simulations with SPH in 3D.
