Physics

Scientific paper

Neutrino-driven winds from protoneutron stars, which emerge just after collapse and explosion in core-collapse supernovae, are thought to be a likely astrophysical site for r-process nucleosynthesis. These neutron-rich environments may be responsible for the production of nearly half of all the elements heavier than iron. In this talk the physics of steady-state general-relativistic winds will be explored and their potential as a site for the r-process assessed.
