ELEMENTS-spokesperson Luciano Rezzolla, Professor for Theoretical Astrophysics at Goethe-University, has been awarded an honorary professorship for his close collaboration with the academic community of New Uzbekistan University and his significant contributions to the fields of physics
There exist several mechanisms explaining the formation of element isotopes in astrophysical phenomena. Nuclear fusion in stars is capable of producing elements up to iron and nickel. However, heavier ones can only be synthesized in
