Simulations show magnetar giant flares produce nuclei near r-process peaks whose decays create bright MeV gamma-ray lines from 88Kr and 92Sr with fluxes above 10^-8 erg cm^-2 s^-1.

A 1D accretion model shows MAD formation for Pm ≳ 1, outer-disk IR emission missed by one-zone approximations, and Pm-dependent X-ray mechanisms that affect IBH detectability in dense clouds.
The paper develops a search algorithm to find observable MeV gamma-ray peaks from r-process isotope decays in mergers and shows Rh-106 can distinguish main versus weak r-process while Tl-208 remains robust across model variations.

Identifying observable MeV lines from the decays of weak and main $r$-process isotopes in mergers
The paper develops a search algorithm to find observable MeV gamma-ray peaks from r-process isotope decays in mergers and shows Rh-106 can distinguish main versus weak r-process while Tl-208 remains robust across model variations.
