Nucleosynthesis in multi-dimensional SNIa explosions

C. Travaglio, W. Hillebrandt, M. Reinecke +1

We present the results of nucleosynthesis calculations based on multidimensional (2D and 3D) hydrodynamical simulations of the thermonuclear burning phase in SNIa. The detailed nuc…

Neutron star mergers versus core-collapse supernovae as dominant r-process sites in the early Galaxy

D. Argast, M. Samland, F. -K. Thielemann +1

The astrophysical nature of r-process sites is a long standing mystery and many probable sources have been suggested in the past, among them lower-mass core-collapse supernovae (in…

Explosive Nucleosynthesis in Hypernovae

Takayoshi Nakamura, Hideyuki Umeda, Koichi Iwamoto +4

We examine the characteristics of nucleosynthesis in 'hypernovae', i.e., supernovae with very large explosion energies ($ \gsim 10^{52} $ ergs). We carry out detailed nucleosynthes…

The Reaction Rate Sensitivity of Nucleosynthesis in Type II Supernovae

R. D. Hoffman, S. E. Woosley, T. A. Weaver +3

We explore the sensitivity of the nucleosynthesis of intermediate mass elements (28 < A < 80) in supernovae derived from massive stars to the nuclear reaction rates employed in the…

Nucleosynthesis in Type II Supernovae

K. Nomoto, M. Hashimoto, T. Tsujimoto +3

Presupernova evolution and explosive nucleosynthesis in massive stars for main-sequence masses from 13 to 70 are calculated. We examine the dependence of the su…

A New Approach to Determine the Initial Mass Function in the Solar Neighborhood

Takuji Tsujimoto, Yuzuru Yoshii, Ken'ichi Nomoto +3

Oxygen to iron abundance ratios of metal-poor stars provide information on nucleosynthesis yields from massive stars which end in Type II supernova explosions. Using a standard mod…
