3 3 Element generation in stars
4 FIRST STEPS: PROTON-PROTON FUSION etc 4 Elements are generated in the Big Bang & stars through the fusion of protons & nuclei All is simple until 4 He Simply adding further protons does not work So how are the life-essential elements like 12 C and 16 O generated? BTW: nuclei make up the visible matter in the Universe
5 A SHORT HISTORY of the HOYLE STATE 5 Heavy element generation in massive stars: triple-α process 4 He + 4 He 8 Be 8 Be + 4 He 12 C 12 C + γ 12 C + 4 He 16 O + γ Bethe 1938, Öpik 1952, Salpeter 1952, Hoyle 1954,... Hoyle s contribution: calculation of relative abundances of 4 He, 12 C and 16 0 need a resonance close to the 8 Be + 4 He threshold at E R = 0.35 MeV this corresponds to a J P = 0 + excited state 7.7 MeV above the g.s. a corresponding state was experimentally confirmed at Caltech at E E(g.s.) = ± MeV Dunbar et al. 1953, Cook et al still on-going experimental activity, e.g. EM transitions at SDALINAC and how about theory? this talk side remark: NOT driven by anthropic considerations M. Chernykh et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 98 (2007) H. Kragh, Arch. Hist. Exact Sci. 64 (2010) 721
6 THE TRIPLE-ALPHA PROCESS MOVIE 6 c ANU the 8 Be nucleus is instable, long lifetime 3 alphas must meet the Hoyle state sits just above the continuum threshold most of the excited carbon nuclei decay (about 4 out of decays produce stable carbon) carbon is further turned into oxygen but w/o a resonant condition a triple wonder!

8 8 The anthropic principle
9 THE ANTHROPIC PRINCIPLE 9 The anthropic principle: The observed values of all physical and cosmological quantities are not equally probable but they take on values restricted by the requirement that there exist sites where carbon-based life can evolve and by the requirements that the Universe be old enough for it to have already done so. Carter 1974, Barrow & Tippler 1988,... can this be tested? / have physical consequences? Ex. 1: Anthropic bound on the cosmological constant Weinberg (1987) [550 cites] Ex. 2: The anthropic string theory landscape Susskind (2003) [724 cites]
10 A PRIME EXAMPLE for the ANTHROPIC PRINCIPLE 10 Hoyle (1953): Prediction of an excited level in carbon-12 to allow for a sufficient production of heavy elements ( 12 C, 16 O,...) in stars was later heralded as a prime example for the AP: As far as we know, this is the only genuine anthropic principle prediction Carr & Rees 1989 In 1953 Hoyle made an anthropic prediction on an excited state level of life for carbon production in stars Linde 2007 A prototype example of this kind of anthropic reasoning was provided by Fred Hoyle s observation of the triple alpha process... Carter 2006
11 The RELEVANT QUESTION 11 Date: Sat, 25 Dec :03: From: Steven Weinberg To: Ulf-G. Meissner Subject: Re: Hoyle state in 12C E (MeV) J P = J P = J z = 0, J P = J z = 2, J P = Dear Professor Meissner, -100 Thanks for the colorful graph. It makes a nice Christmas -110 card. But I have a detailed question. Suppose you calculate not only the energy LO NLO EM+IB NNLO Exper. of the Hoyle state in C12, but also of the ground states of He4 and Be8. How sensitive is the result that the energy of the Hoyle state is near the sum of the rest energies of He4 and Be8 to the parameters of the theory? I ask because I suspect that for a pretty broad range of parameters, the Hoyle state can be well represented as a nearly bound state of Be8 and He4. All best, Steve Weinberg How does the Hoyle state move relative to the 4He+8Be threshold, if we change the fundamental parameters of QCD+QED? not possible in nature, but on a high-performance computer!
12 The NON-ANTHROPIC SCENARIO 12 Weinberg s assumption: The Hoyle state stays close to the 4He+8Be threshold energy difference Hoyle 4He+8Be g g g g+ g fundamental parameter
13 The ANTHROPIC SCENARIO 13 The AP strikes back: The Hoyle state moves away from the 4He+8Be threshold energy difference Hoyle 4He+8Be g g g g+ g fundamental parameter

But how about ab initio calculations for systems with A 5?
