r-Process elements from magnetorotational hypernovae

Neutron-star mergers were recently confirmed as sites of rapid-neutron-capture (r-process) nucleosynthesis1-3. However, in Galactic chemical evolution models, neutron-star mergers alone cannot reproduce the observed element abundance patterns of extremely metal-poor stars, which indicates the existe...
