Nucleosynthesis simulations for the production of the p-nuclei $^{\text{92}}$Mo and $^{\text{94}}$Mo in a Supernova type II model

arXiv:1507.03416 · doi:10.1051/epjconf/20159303006

Abstract

We present a nucleosynthesis sensitivity study for the $γ$-process in a Supernova type II model within the NuGrid research platform. The simulations aimed at identifying the relevant local production and destruction rates for the p-nuclei of molybdenum and at determining the sensitivity of the final abundances to these rates. We show that local destruction rates strongly determine the abundance of $^{92}$Mo and $^{94}$Mo, and quantify the impact.
