Implications of Ultraheavy Cosmic-Ray Source Composition Derived from Observations by the HEAO-3 Heavy Nuclei Experiment

Abstract

We have derived the contribution of r-process and s-process nucleosynthesis to the Cameron (1980) solar system (SS) abundances for Z~33. In the interval 34 ~Zs; 40 our HEA0-3 data extrapolated to the cosmic-ray source (CRS) fit the solar system mix better than r-process. In the interval 26 < Z < 40 the HEA0-3 results for CRS/SS follow the same general correlation with first ionization potential as for the lighter eiements although there are deviations in detail.
