explosive nucleosynthesis The nucleosynthesis processes that are believed to occur in supernovae. Explosive carbon burning occurs at a temperature of about 2 × 10⁹ K and produces the nuclei from neon to silicon. Explosive oxygen burning occurs near 4 × 10⁹ K and produces nuclei between silicon and calcium in atomic weight. At higher temperatures, still heavier nuclei, up to and beyond iron, are produced. physics stellar nucleosynthesis fission
