This research investigates the physics of compact astronomical objects like neutron stars and white dwarfs. By combining X-ray astronomy and nuclear physics, it aims to address fundamental questions about thermonuclear reactions occurring in these dense environments.
Neutron stars, black holes and white dwarfs, collectively known as compact objects, are born when normal stars die.
Besides being of broad interest in astronomy, compact objects offer unique tools for the study of nuclear physics and cosmology.
The density in the core of neutron stars exceeds that of an atomic nucleus, which makes them the densest stable objects that we can observe in the Universe.
When accreted matter falls onto the surface of a neutron star or a white dwarf, it is piled up and…
