Chemical Elements as Tracers of the Evolution of the Cosmos

Astronuclear Nibbles

A series videos addressing 9 topics/questions in the field of Nuclear Astrophysics to a general audience.

A series of 9 videos have been produced. An Advisory Board (R. Hirschi, M. Lugaro, J. Feige, A. Laird, and the actor and nuclear astrophysicist Anuj Parikh -an external collaborator) helped the coordinator of this series, J. José, to select the speakers (all from ChETEC country membres), based on a combination of geographical, age and gender balance. The videos show the multidisciplinary nature of this field, by combining  astrophysics, nuclear physics and cosmochemistry themes. They will be posted soon in a public server.
