Massive stars are rapid nuclear reactors that play a key role in injecting new synthesized elements in the interstellar medium. Depending on the strengths of the stellar winds on the efficiency of mixing processes, the masses and the chemical composi... Read More about Evolution and Nucleosynthesis of Massive Stars.

Insights on the First Stars from CEMP-no Stars
Journal Article
Choplin, A., Meynet, G., Maeder, A., Hirschi, R., Ekström, S., & Chiappini, C. (2017). Insights on the First Stars from CEMP-no Stars. JPS Conference Proceedings, https://doi.org/10.7566/jpscp.14.020202

CEMP-no stars (Carbon-Enhanced metal-poor stars with no or few s- or r-elements) are long-lived low mass stars presenting a very low iron content and overabundances of carbon relatively to the sun. Their chemically peculiar abundance pattern could be... Read More about Insights on the First Stars from CEMP-no Stars.

Production Uncertainties of p-Nuclei in the γ-Process in Massive Stars Using a Monte Carlo Approach
Conference Proceeding
Rauscher, T., Nishimura, N., Hirschi, R., Cescutti, G., Murphy, A. S. J., & Heger, A. (2017). Production Uncertainties of p-Nuclei in the γ-Process in Massive Stars Using a Monte Carlo Approach. In Proceedings of the 14th International Symposium on Nuclei in the Cosmos (NIC2016). https://doi.org/10.7566/jpscp.14.010509

Proton-rich nuclei, the so-called p-nuclei, are made in photodisintegration processes in outer shells of massive stars in the course of the final supernova explosion. Nuclear uncertainties in the production of these nuclei have been quantified in a M...
