Self-consistent Conditions for 26Al Injection into a Protosolar Disk from a Nearby Supernova

The early solar system contained a short-lived radionuclide, ^26 Al (its half-life time t _1/2 = 0.7 Myr). The decay energy of ^26 Al is thought to have controlled the thermal evolution of planetesimals and, possibly, the water contents of planets. Many hypotheses have been proposed for the origin o...
