Nuclei in the cosmos

Abstract

Nuclei in the cosmos are crucial for understanding the evolution of the universe. They provide insights into processes such as star formation, supernovae, and the creation of heavy elements. Various nuclear processes occurring in stars and supernovae influence the isotopic abundances observed in the universe. Studying these processes and the abundance patterns of different elements helps determine the origin and evolution of celestial objects and the cosmos itself. – AI-generated abstract.
