Nucleosynthesis in thermonuclear supernovae

Abstract

We review our understanding of the nucleosynthesis that occurs in thermonuclear supernovae and their contribution to Galactic Chemical evolution.We discuss the prospects to improve the modeling of the nucleosynthesis within simulations of these events.

Keywords

supernovae / nuclear reactions / explosive nucleosynthesis / stellar spectra / hydrodynamics / chemical evolution
