That diagram looks similar to the one on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_nucleosynthesis but the Wikipedia one is more up-to-date, since it mentions merging neutron stars.

@PM2Ring Is this connected with the r process?

That seems to be the case. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-process#Astrophysical_sites

Could someone tell me if it proceeds as well as which or which works would allow us to conclude the origin of the elements for different types of bodies or celestial phenomena?
