  Physics beyond the Standard Model with the DSA-2000

  The upcoming Deep Synoptic Array 2000 (DSA-2000) will map the radio sky at $0.7-2$ GHz ($2.9 – 8.3 \, \mueV$) with unprecedented sensitivity. This will enable searches for dark matter […]

  𝜈p-process in Core-Collapse Supernovae: Imprints of General Relativistic Effects

  The origin of certain proton-rich isotopes in the solar system, particularly $^{92,94}{\rm Mo}$ and $^{96,98}{\rm Ru}$, has been a long-standing puzzle. A promising explanation is the 𝜈p-process, which is posited […]

  Constraining Nuclear Mass Models Using r-process Observables with Multi-objective Optimization

  Predicting nuclear masses is a longstanding challenge. One path forward is machine learning (ML) which trains on experimental data, but can suffer large errors when extrapolating toward neutron-rich species. In […]

  Atomic masses with machine learning for the astrophysical r process

  The astrophysical r process plays a vital role in the production of heavy elements. Modeling of the r process is sensitive to masses and further requires knowledge of masses beyond […]
