Almudena Arcones works at the interphase of astrophysics and nuclear physics combining pioneering hydrodynamical simulations of core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers with forefront nucleosynthesis calculations to explain the origin of heavy elements in the universe. In 2016, she was awarded an ERC Starting Grant (EUROPIUM) to investigate the origin of heavy elements in neutron star mergers and core-collapse supernovae.
