The astrophysical r-process and the origin of the heaviest elements
·
Abstract
The r-process is responsible for production of the heaviest elements, but many open questions remain about its nature. To answer these questions requires meaningful public access to high-resolution, UV/blue/optical spectroscopic instruments on 6-10 m telescopes, 30 m ELTs, and the next generation of space UV facilities.
