Online tools for nucleosynthesis studies

The nucleosynthesis of the elements between iron and uranium involves many different astrophysical scenarios covering wide ranges of temperatures and densities. Thousands of nuclei and ten thousands of reaction rates have to be included in the corresponding simulations. We investigate the impact of...

Description
Summary:The nucleosynthesis of the elements between iron and uranium involves many different astrophysical scenarios covering wide ranges of temperatures and densities. Thousands of nuclei and ten thousands of reaction rates have to be included in the corresponding simulations. We investigate the impact of single rates on the predicted abundance distributions with post-processing nucleosynthesis simulations. We present online tools, which allow the investigation of sensitivities and integrated mass fluxes in different astrophysical scenarios.
