DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.0c01746
Abstract: Actinide chemistry appears to be a challenge for both experimentalists and theoreticians. Radioactivity and computational obstacles lead to a lack of heterogeneous data describing actinide compounds. Here we present a description of the first database… read more here.

DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/201936591
Abstract: The goal of this work is to investigate Jupiter's growth focusing on the amount of heavy elements accreted by the planet, and its comparison with recent structure models. Our model assumes an initial core growth… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.122.062701
Abstract: The kilonova emission observed following the binary neutron star merger event GW170817 provided the first direct evidence for the synthesis of heavy nuclei through the rapid neutron capture process (r process). The late-time transition in… read more here.
