Journal Article
Frischknecht, U., Hirschi, R., Pignatari, M., Maeder, A., Meynet, G., Chiappini, C., …Ekström, S. (2016). s-process production in rotating massive stars at solar and low metallicities. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 456(2), 1803 - 1825. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv2723
