An amazing conversation with 4 outstanding SAS scholarship recipients. #thisiswhatexcellancelookslike Rutgers University



Congrats Rutgers University Earth & Planetary Sciences for superb poster session today. From mapping dormant volcanoes to studying meteorites for clues to earth's composition, this dept. is on the leading edge of the field!

arxiv.org/abs/2501.09181 In work led by Ani Patel we found evidence, in an old unexplained gamma-ray signal, that the famous giant magnetar flare 20 years ago synthesized ~1e-6 Msun in r-process elements. With Todd Thompson we've finally confirmed magnetars can "r-process".



With Brian Metzger and others, we discovered a new site of heavy element (r-process) nucleosynthesis! Main points nicely summarized below.
