摘要:

产生第一个$r$过程峰($Z = 38-47$)的较轻重元素的一个有希望的天体物理学场所是中等富中子($0.4 < Y_e < 0.5$)中微子驱动的爆炸环境的喷出物,如核心坍缩超新星和中子星合并,在那里弱$r$过程起作用。这种核合成表现出的不确定性,从$(α,xn)$反应的实验数据的情况下,富中子核,这是目前基于统计模型的估计。在这项工作中,我们报告了一个新的核反应的影响,使用Monte Carlo方法和改进的$(α,xn)$率的基础上的原子V2 $α$光学模型势($α$ OMP)。我们将我们的结果与最新的贫金属恒星[Fe/H] $<$ -1.5列表的观测结果进行比较,以找到中微子驱动风的条件,在那里可以合成较轻的重元素。我们确定了一系列$(α,xn)$反应速率,它们在不同的天体物理条件下会影响关键元素的比例。我们的研究旨在利用现有的和新一代的放射性核束设施开展更多的$(α, xn)$反应的核物理实验,并开展更多的贫金属星的观测研究。

英文摘要:

A promising astrophysical site to produce the lighter heavy elements of the first $r$-process peak ($Z = 38-47$) is the moderately neutron rich ($0.4 < Y_e < 0.5$) neutrino-driven ejecta of explosive environments, such as core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers, where the weak $r$-process operates. This nucleosynthesis exhibits uncertainties from the absence of experimental data from $(α,xn)$ reactions on neutron-rich nuclei, which are currently based on statistical model estimates. In this work, we report on a new study of the nuclear reaction impact using a Monte Carlo approach and improved $(α,xn)$ rates based on the Atomki-V2 $α$ Optical Model Potential ($α$OMP). We compare our results with observations from an up-to-date list of metal-poor stars with [Fe/H] $<$ -1.5 to find conditions of the neutrino-driven wind where the lighter heavy elements can be synthesized. We identified a list of $(α,xn)$ reaction rates that affect key elemental ratios in different astrophysical conditions. Our study aims on motivating more nuclear physics experiments on $(α, xn)$ reactions using current and the new generation of radioactive beam facilities and also more observational studies of metal-poor stars.
