Scientific paper

A review is presented of the p-process in Type II supernovae, one of its goals being to enlighten the changes in views on this nucleosynthesis mechanism since the work of Jean and Jim on the subject in 1975. Specific discussions are also devoted to cases of particular interest, like the light Mo and Ru stable isotopes, the rare nuclide 138La or the radionuclide 146Sm. Some comments of diverse natures are also made on the r-process. These considerations do not aim at really providing an exhaustive review of the many nuclear physics and astrophysics intricacies of this process. In contrast, they are hoped to complement or to put in perspective other views that are often expressed in relation with this nucleosynthesis mechanism
