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.
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.
A balloon mission concept with 8192 TES detectors projects 200 eV FWHM resolution at 511 keV and 35-sigma detection of the galactic center 511 keV line to study its shape and substructure.
Treating select nuclear isomers as independent states with temperature-dependent rates in r-process networks yields predictions that the 743.3 keV Nb-97m and 555.6 keV Y-91m lines may be detectable at galactic distances by COSI, AMEGO, or LOX.

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.

Nuclear Isomers and Their Impact on Gamma-Ray Emission in Binary Neutron Star Mergers
Treating select nuclear isomers as independent states with temperature-dependent rates in r-process networks yields predictions that the 743.3 keV Nb-97m and 555.6 keV Y-91m lines may be detectable at galactic distances by COSI, AMEGO, or LOX.
