Distributions Of Long-Lived Radioactive Nuclei Provided By Star-Forming Environments, Marco Fatuzzo, Fred Adams
Distributions Of Long-Lived Radioactive Nuclei Provided By Star-Forming Environments, Marco Fatuzzo, Fred Adams
Faculty Scholarship
Radioactive nuclei play an important role in planetary evolution by providing an internal heat source, which affects planetary structure and helps facilitate plate tectonics. A minimum level of nuclear activity is thought to be necessary—but not sufficient—for planets to be habitable. Extending previous work that focused on short-lived nuclei, this paper considers the delivery of long-lived radioactive nuclei to circumstellar disks in star forming regions. Although the long-lived nuclear species are always present, their abundances can be enhanced through multiple mechanisms. Most stars form in embedded cluster environments, so that disks can be enriched directly by intercepting ejecta from supernovae …

Charged Particle Dynamics In The Magnetic Field Of A Long Straight Current-Carrying Wire, M. Fatuzzo, A. Prentice, T. Toepker
Faculty Scholarship
The article discusses the concept behind motion of a charged particle in a non-uniform filed of a wire carrying current. Topics discussed include possible types of motion in a current carrying field, vector analysis of velocity and magnetic field of the particle and Coupled differential equations.
