Contents 0. Motivation in Nuclear Abundance
Brief Introduction of Nuclear Structure (by QRPA and Deformed QRPA) 2. Neutrino process for the origin of a proton-nucleus for 138Ce,136Ce and 180W 3. Results and Summary Changwon, KPS 2009

Motivation 1 Understanding of origin of matter in the universe is strongly related with the evolution of stars, in which most of nuclei are believed to be synthesized and emitted by various explosion mechanisms at their last stages. The nucleosynthesis is sensitive on the given conditions of the site, such as preceding matter, temperature, masses of stars and so on, as well as Galaxy Chemical Evolution and Cosmic Ray. Changwon, KPS 2009
4
Motivation 2 Since nuclear reactions relevant to the processes are presumed as thermally balanced, the nuclei unstable at the present time and their structure can play important roles in the nucleosynthesis. Radioactive isotope beam facility could produce the exotic unstable nuclei and investigate their key reactions on the ground, so that it could give invaluable microscopic understanding of the origin of matter complementary to the observational astronomical data. Changwon, KPS 2009

Motivation 3 In this talk we present a few examples of origin of matter with results available from astronomical observational, experimental and theoretical data. Changwon, KPS 2009

Mechanism of Super Nova Explosion
Within a massive, evolved star (a) the onion-layered shells of elements undergo fusion, forming an iron core (b) that reaches Chandrasekhar-mass and starts to collapse. The inner part of the core is compressed into neutrons (c), causing infalling material to bounce (d) and form an outward-propagating shock front (red). The shock starts to stall (e), but it is reinvigorated by neutrino interaction. The surrounding material is blasted away (f), leaving only a degenerate remnant. Changwon, KPS 2009

Summary and Remarks Astronomical Observational data with meteorite analysis show nuclear abundances in solar and other stars, which show a universality. Origins for part of them are not clear still. As an example, origin of 138La and Ta180 leading to the proton-nucleus 180W and 136Ce are studied by their relevant nuclear reactions, in specific, neutrino reactions are detailed by experiments and theoretical calculations. Network calculations are in progress. Changwon, KPS 2009
