Hi, I'm studying my astronomy course at the moment and i have question about the r- and s-process. As I understand it, in the r-process, the time between capturing two neutrons is shorter than the averge beta decay half life, right? So I'm guessing there have to be a lot of neutrons around for the r process to take place. But where do all these neutrons come from?
