Electron-capture supernovae as the origin of elements beyond iron
Shinya Wanajo, Hans-Thomas Janka, Bernhard Mueller
We examine electron-capture supernovae (ECSNe) as sources of elements heavier than iron in the solar system and in Galactic halo stars. Nucleosynthesis calculations are performed o…
The r-Process in Black Hole Winds
Shinya Wanajo, Hans-Thomas Janka
All the current r-process scenarios relevant to core-collapse supernovae are facing severe difficulties. In particular, recent core-collapse simulations with neutrino transport sho…
Uncertainties in the nu p-process: supernova dynamics versus nuclear physics
Shinya Wanajo, Hans-Thomas Janka, Shigeru Kubono
We examine how the uncertainties involved in supernova dynamics as well as in nuclear data inputs affect the nup-process in the neutrino-driven winds. For the supernova dynamics, w…
