HD 222925: A New Opportunity to Explore the Astrophysical and Nuclear Conditions of r-process Sites

HD 222925: A New Opportunity to Explore the Astrophysical and Nuclear Conditions of r-process Sites

With the most trans-iron elements detected of any star outside the solar system, HD 222925 represents the most complete chemical inventory among metal-poor stars enhanced with elements made by the rapid neutron capture (“ r ”) process. As such, HD 222925 may be a new “template” for the observational...
