On the synthesis of heavy nuclei in protomagnetar outflows and implications for ultra-high energy cosmic rays

Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: Mukul Bhattacharya, Shunsaku Horiuchi, Kohta Murase, , | Summary: It has been suggested that strongly magnetised and rapidly rotating protoneutron stars (PNSs) may produce long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originating from stellar core collapse. We explore the steady-state properties and heavy element nucleosynthesis in neutrino-driven winds from […]
