 Initial studies found wind to be

promising r‐process site (Woosley et al. 1994)

 Wind nucleosynthesis

determined by Ye, s, and tdyn

 Proton rich wind may also

contribute to nucleosynthesis

 How does standard NDW

nucleosynthesis fit in the context of full stellar models?

  • Temperature structure of the

protoneutron star atmosphere set by:

  • Mass loss rate set near surface
  • Volumetric energy deposition

source doesn’t effect atmosphere, deposits energy after mass loss rate is set

  • Increases entropy of material,

decreases dynamical timescale, conditions more favorable for r- process (Qian & Woosley 96, Suzuki & Nagataki 05)

Suzuki & Nagataki argue it is reasonable for high magnetic fields, give Alfven waves and non‐linear damping

 Integrated NDW Nucleosynthesis

  • Low mass progenitor wind does not contribute significantly
  • Higher mass progenitor consistent with yields from the full star
  • Sensitive to uncertain neutrino spectra
  • Evolution of N=50 closed shell elements may trace fallback

history

  • See arXiv:1004.4916

 Secondary Energy Deposition

  • Get high neutron to seed ratios for reasonable amount of

energy deposition

  • sound waves from PNS oscillations weak shocks
  • Volumetric energy deposition at correct radius for r‐process
