Constraints on the Frequency and Mass Content of r-process Events Derived from Turbulent Mixing in Galactic Disks

Constraints on the Frequency and Mass Content of r-process Events Derived from Turbulent Mixing in Galactic Disks

Metal-poor stars in the Milky Way (MW) halo display large star-to-star dispersion in their r -process abundance relative to lighter elements. This suggests a chemically diverse and unmixed interstellar medium (ISM) in the early universe. This study aims to help shed light on the impact of turbulent...
