16 Nucleosynthesis and electron fraction neutron-rich proton-rich Abundance pattern is robust to local variations of the electron fraction Sr Zr Cd Y r-process elements can only be created with extreme Ye values Ba Production of heavy elements
17 Nucleosynthesis in proton-rich ν-driven winds Superposition of trajectories 0.5 < Ye < 0.65 following Hüdepohl et al. (2009) Limit assuming that every supernova ejects the same amount of matter with the same isotopic composition Arcones&Montes, arxiv: p-nuclei created Abundance pattern is robust to local variations of the electron fraction LEPP pattern observed in old metal-poor star can be explained but... The LEPP component of Travaglio et al requires s-only isotopes
18 Nucleosynthesis in neutron-rich ν-driven winds Superposition of trajectories with 0.5 > Ye > 0.45 LEPP pattern observed in old metalpoor stars can be explained but... Elemental pattern is rather sensitive to electron fraction evolution Overproduction of A=90 nuclei (Hoffman et al. 1996)
19 Conclusions First comparison of the light element primary process pattern observed in metal-poor stars and nucleosynthesis in realistic neutrino driven-wind simulations Electron fraction has an important effect on final abundances and depends on the uncertain composition and interaction in the outer layers of the proton-neutron star Abundance pattern can be reproduced by neutron and proton -rich winds Proton-rich winds show a rather robust pattern but produce p-nuclei and not in enough quantities Neutron-rich winds overproduce A=90 nuclei A combination of both types of winds is likely and may be able to explain the LEPP solar system contribution
