We estimate yields of $p$-nuclei such as $^{92,94}\\mathrm{Mo}$ and $^{96,98}\\mathrm{Ru}$ through the $\\nu p$-process in various supernova (SN) progenitors based upon recent models. In particular, the $\\nu p$-process in energetic hypernovae produces a large amount of $p$-nuclei compared to the yield in ordinary core-collapse SNe. Because of this the abundances of $^{92,94}\\mathrm{Mo}$ and $^{96,98}\\mathrm{Ru}$ in the Galaxy are significantly enhanced at [Fe/H]=0 by the $\\nu p$-process. We find that the $\\nu p$-process in hypernovae is the main contributor to the elemental abundance of $^{92}$Mo at low metallicity [Fe/H$]<-2$. Our theoretical prediction of the elemental abundances in metal-poor stars becomes more consistent with observational data when the $\\nu p$-process in hypernovae is taken into account.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-06-03T08:25:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "galactic chemical evolution", "elemental abundance", "energetic hypernovae produces", "ordinary core-collapse sne", "observational data" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
