Limongi & Chieffi (2018), ApJS, 237, 13 core collapse supernova (CCSN) yields

Signature: from vice.yields.ccsne import LC18

Importing this module will automatically set the CCSN yield settings for all elements to the IMF-averaged yields calculated with the Limongi & Chieffi (2018) yield table for [M/H] = 0 stars. This will adopt an upper mass limit of 100 \(M_\odot\).

We provide core collapse supernova yields for progenitors at rotational velocities of 0, 150, and 300 km/s as reported by Limongi & Chieffi (2018) at metallicities relative to solar of \(\log_{10}(Z / Z_\odot)\) =

Tip

By importing this module, the user does not sacrifice the ability to specify their yield settings directly.

Note

This module is not imported with a simple import vice statement.

Note

When this module is imported, the yields will be updated with a maximum of 10^5 bins in quadrature to decrease computational overhead. For some elements, the yield calculation may not converge. To rerun the yield calculation with higher numerical precision, simply call set_params with a new value for the keyword Nmax (see below).
