Searching for the First Stars Through Nuclear ReactionsOver the years, the interplay between nuclear physics, computational astrophysics, and observational astronomy has been critical to our understanding of the cosmos. Nuclear data and astrophysical models continue to provide key input to help explain and guide astronomical observations. Once recent example involves the search for the first generation of ...
Landform evolution modelling has become an important tool in interpreting the landscapes of the icy satellites of the solar system. In this talk, I will discuss the methods that are applied to this purpose and describe its application to several interesting icy satellite bodies, including Titan, Triton, Callisto and Helene. ...
