Nuclear Masses, Nucleosynthesis

Scientific paper

Although important efforts have been devoted in the last decades to measure atomic masses, the modelling of the r- and p-processes of nucleosynthesis still requires the use of theoretical predictions to estimate experimentally unknown masses in the neutron-rich and neutron-deficient regions. Different mass models are available to extrapolate nuclear masses far away from the experimentally known region. These models are compared and used to estimate the reaction rates of relevance in the r- and p-processes. The impact of the different mass models on the astrophysics predictions are discussed.
