Nuclear reaction network unveils novel reaction patterns based on stellar energies by Chunheng Jiang, Boleslaw K Szymanski, Jie Lian, Shlomo Havlin, Jianxi Gao

“…Interestingly, the degree distribution of nuclear network exhibits a bimodal distribution that significantly deviates from the common power-law distribution of scale-free networks and Poisson distribution of random networks. Based on the dynamics from the cross section parameterizations in REACLIB, we surprisingly find that the distribution is universal for reactions with a rate below the threshold, $\lambda {< }{\mathrm{e}}^{-{T}^{\gamma }}$ , where T is the temperature and γ ≈ 1.05. …”
