Fission In R-process Elements - FY19 Q4 Quarterly Report
- Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Livermore, CA (United States)
The goal of the FIRE topical collaboration in nuclear theory is to determine the astrophysical conditions of the rapid neutron capture process (r-process), which is responsible for the formation of heavy elements. This will be achieved by including in r-process simulations the most advanced models of fission (spontaneous, neutron-induced, β-delayed) that have been developed at LLNL and LANL. The collaboration is composed of LLNL (lead) and LANL for fission work, BNL for nuclear data management, and the university of Notre Dame and North Carolina State University for r-process simulations. Under DOE/NNSA agreement, both universities receive funds from DOE Office of Science, while national laboratories receive funds directly from NA221.
