Masters Student at UVic exploring how stars make all the elements we see
I am excited to share the pre-print for my second paper exploring the relationship between 3D hydrodynamic simulations of stars and finding habitable exoplanets! Read all about it here: arxiv.org/abs/2509.19240.
3D Macro Physics and Light Odd-Z Element Production in O-C Shell Mergers: Implications for $^{40}\mathrm{K}$ production and radiogenic heating inventories of rocky exoplanets
The light odd-Z elements P, Cl, K, and Sc are underproduced in galactic chemical evolution models compared to spectroscopic observations of stars in the Milky Way. The most promising solution to this ...
