High-accuracy waveforms for black hole-neutron star systems with spinning black holes
The availability of accurate numerical waveforms is an important requirement for the creation and calibration of reliable waveform models for gravitational wave astrophysics. For black hole-neutron star binaries, very few […]

The cosmology of sub-MeV dark matter freeze-in
Dark matter (DM) could be a relic of freeze-in through a light mediator, where the DM is produced by extremely feeble, IR-dominated processes in the thermal Standard Model plasma. In […]

Kilonovae across the nuclear physics landscape: The impact of nuclear physics uncertainties on r-process-powered emission
Merging neutron stars produce “kilonovae”—electromagnetic transients powered by the decay of unstable nuclei synthesized via rapid neutron capture (the r-process) in material that is gravitationally unbound during inspiral and coalescence. […]

Potential Impact of Fast Flavor Oscillations on Neutrino-driven Winds and Their Nucleosynthesis
The wind driven by the intense neutrino emission from a protoneutron star (PNS) is an important site for producing nuclei heavier than the Fe group. Because of certain features in […]

Production of very light elements in kilonovae
We study the production of light elements (Z
