Binary Neutron Star Merger Evolution and r-Process Enrichment in the Milky Way Disk
Binary neutron star mergers with evolving merger rates or yields are strongly preferred over constant scenarios to explain Milky Way r-process enrichment, with Bayes factors exceeding 10^20, yet remain in tension with short gamma-ray burst observations.
