Scientific paper

We present nucleosynthesis studies based on trajectories of hydrodynamical simulations for core-collapse supernovae and their subsequent neutrino-driven winds. Based on recent hydrodynamical simulations, heavy r-process elements (Z > 56) cannot be synthesized in the neutrino-driven winds because the entropy is too low and ejected matter is proton-rich. We have shown that the lighter heavy elements (e.g., Sr, Y, Zr) are produced in neutron- and proton-rich winds and could explain the abundance observed in some very old halo stars.
