Executive Summary
We are utilizing a combination of nuclear reaction rate measurements, computational modelling, and presolar grain isotopic measurements to test the viability of the neutrino-driven wind in a core collapse supernova as a source of elements between selenium and silver. If successful, we will resolve open questions about the weak rapid neutron capture process, thereby making a significant contribution to the field of nuclear astrophysics.
