 +==Parameter Space==
 We have chosen to do a parameter space study in peak temperature,​ density, and electron fraction, tarting with a set parameter space of peak temperatures [T<​sub>​9</​sub>​ = 4 - 7] and densities [$\rho$ = 10<​sup>​5</​sup>​ - 10<​sup>​7</​sup>​ g/​cm<​sup>​3</​sup>​] for three values of the electron fraction [Y<​sub>​e</​sub>​ = 0.45, 0.50, 0.55]. ​ This parameter space roughly corresponds with the shock heated region in simulations of Cassiopeia A-like supernovae (Young & Fryer 2007). We have chosen to do a parameter space study in peak temperature,​ density, and electron fraction, tarting with a set parameter space of peak temperatures [T<​sub>​9</​sub>​ = 4 - 7] and densities [$\rho$ = 10<​sup>​5</​sup>​ - 10<​sup>​7</​sup>​ g/​cm<​sup>​3</​sup>​] for three values of the electron fraction [Y<​sub>​e</​sub>​ = 0.45, 0.50, 0.55]. ​ This parameter space roughly corresponds with the shock heated region in simulations of Cassiopeia A-like supernovae (Young & Fryer 2007).
  
 +==Thermodynamic Trajectories==
 We use analytic adiabatic freeze-out trajectories (Hoyle et al. 1964; Fowler & Hoyle 1964) which satisfy the differential equations: We use analytic adiabatic freeze-out trajectories (Hoyle et al. 1964; Fowler & Hoyle 1964) which satisfy the differential equations:

 +==Reaction Network ==
 We used the [[https://​wikihost.nscl.msu.edu/​talent/​lib/​exe/​fetch.php?​media=xnet_public.zip|XNet]] reaction network code.  Our code included 447 isotopes ranging from hydrogen through germanium. ​ We took the reaction rates from the [[https://​groups.nscl.msu.edu/​jina/​reaclib/​db/​library.php?​action=viewsnapshots|JINA Reaclib database]]. ​ We set the threshold temperature for NSE to be 5 GK. We used the [[https://​wikihost.nscl.msu.edu/​talent/​lib/​exe/​fetch.php?​media=xnet_public.zip|XNet]] reaction network code.  Our code included 447 isotopes ranging from hydrogen through germanium. ​ We took the reaction rates from the [[https://​groups.nscl.msu.edu/​jina/​reaclib/​db/​library.php?​action=viewsnapshots|JINA Reaclib database]]. ​ We set the threshold temperature for NSE to be 5 GK.
