Fig. 2. ⁶⁰Fe yields used in this work. Left panel: ⁶⁰Fe yields as function of initial stellar mass for type II supernovae (Woosley & Weaver 1995, WW95). The inset shows ⁶⁰Fe yields for Helium stars as function of the initial He mass (Woosley, Langer & Weaver 1995, WLW95). Right panel: ⁶⁰Fe yields as function of initial stellar mass after combining the nucleosynthesis models with the evolutionary tracks (see text). Same symbols as in Fig. 1. For , the final yield corresponds to the yield using as a linking parameter
