From Nuclei to the Cosmos: Tracing Heavy-Element Production with the Oldest Stars
Understanding the origin of the elements has been a decades-long pursuit, with many open questions remaining. Old stars found in the Milky Way and its dwarf satellite galaxies can provide answers because they preserve clean element abundance patterns of the nucleosynthesis processes that operated so...
