HYDROGEN SHELL BURNING
At central H-exhaustion H-burning sets in a Shell outside the He-core.

A convective envelope forms, the inner border of this envelope reachs zones chemically modified by he central H-burning.

HELIUM BURNING – 3
At central H-exhaustion, the He core is mainly composed by 4He (98%) & 14N (1%)
Withouth Nuclear Energy generation within the core, it contracts and Tc increases
When Tc ~ 1.5 108 K Efficient He-burning

At the beginning 4He 8Be and 8Be rapidly decays to 4He
4He + 4He 8Be +
8Be 4He + 4He
8Be + 4He 12C +
Later, at higher T and the equilibrium abundance of 8Be increases
and so increases the probability of the reaction 8Be + 4He producing 12C
3 4He 12C +
HELIUM BURNING – REACTIONS
Initially: 4He in 12C But when 12C abundance is significant and 4He abundance is
reduced, it is more likely that 4He is captured by 12C than by 4He:
3 4He 12C +
12C + 4He 12O +
16O + 4He 20Ne +

At central He exhaustion, He burning moves to a shell just outside the CO core
The following evolution is characterized by the development of a convective He-burning shell limited by the CO core and by the H-burning shell.
The chemical composition of this shell, that will be active till the collapse, tends to get frozen because the evolution of the star is more and more rapid at the
advanced phases.

The two density gradients correspond to the border of the He core (~ 9 M) and to the border of the CO core (~ 6 M )
This density profile is important for the explosion properties
ADVANCED EVOLUTIONARY PHASES: NEUTRINO DOMINATED
Now the CO core, produced by the central He-burning, contracts During the contraction the and T within the core favours the production of thermal neutrinos produced by pair anhilation.
At T>109 K high energy photons produce e+e- pairs
eeThat suddenly recombine to produce a photon.BUT once over 1019 times, e+e- produces a neutrino-antineutrino pair

This energy sink increases along the subsequent phases up to the pre-collapse phase
Advanced evolutionary phases of massive stars are called
“neutrino dominated”
ADVANCED EVOLUTIONARY PHASES: NEUTRINO LUMINOSITY
From now on the energy losses:
Photons from the surface
Neutrinos from the center

Up to C central ignition the main energy losses are due to photons and after are due to neutrinos. As the nuclear energy gives the star what is lossing, it follows first the luminosity of photons, and after, the neutrino luminosity

The gravitational collapse of a stars with M 12 M could liberate an energy of
Most of this energy increases the electron energy and, after electron captures, is converted in neutrino energy
Just a small fraction is used to eject (kinetic energy) the envelope
So, the key question is to find a mechanism able to transform a small fraction of the binding energy left during the collapse in kinetic energy of the envelope with the observed velocities ( 104 km/s)
Explosive Nucleosynthesis and Chemical Yields
Explosion Mechanism Still Uncertain
The explosion can be simulated by means of a piston of initial velocity v0, located near the edge of the iron core
v0 is tuned in order to have a given amount of 56Ni ejected and/or a corresponding final kinetic energy Ekin

The theoretical kinetic energy must be compatible with the observed
MASS CUT CALIBRATION vs INITIAL MASS
From the observed initial mass of the progenitor we may obtain an empirical relaction between this mass and the 56Ni produced (or Mcut)

Open circles = No SNIa Filled circles = 12% SNIa
1)SNIa contribute only to the Solar System abundances of nuclei in the range Ti-Ni
2)The inclusion of SNIa brings 50Ti and 54Cr into the band of compatibility 50Ti and 54Cr become scaled solar compared to O
Contribution of Type Ia SNe
3) 14N and lot of heavy elements come from AGB stars
CONCLUSIONS
Assuming a Salpeted IMF the efficiency of enriching the ISM with heavy elements is:
H: decreased by f=0.64He: increased by f=1.47Metals: increased by f=6.84
For each solar mass of gas
returned to the ISM
Massive Stars are responsible for producing elements from

CHEMICAL ENRICHMENT BY A GENERATION OF MASSIVE STARS
The 25 M solar model could be considered as the “typical” case, representative of stars from 13 to 35 M
If we compute the YIELDS (ejected abundances in solar masses) of the different isotopes produced by a grid of models (~13 to 35 M), we could compute the chemical contribution of a generation of Massive Stars to the ISM
These YIEDS are ingredients in a Chemical Evolution Model for the Galaxy, includes SFR, IMF & Infall
In principle, the chemical solar distribution is a consequence of different generations of stars with different initial compositions
The metallicity of the ISM is expected to increse continously and with longer time-scales than the evolutionary time of the stars that contributes to the chemical enrichment
We expect that the YIELDS of a generation of masive solar metallicity stars explain the solar distribution
The only elements that vary between case “Flat” and case “Trend” are Fe and Ni and, at a smaller extent also Ti, Co and Zn (i.e. elements produced in the deep layers of the exploding mantle)
The majority of the elements have PFs compatible with that of O show a scaled solar distribution
