 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.

 +==Initial Abundances and Y$_{e}$==
 +For any given peak temperature and density, our initial composition was pure $^{28}$Si (therefore Y$_{e}$ = .5) In order to change the initial Y$_{e}$, we just added protons or neutrons to the initial composition according to the following equations: ​
 +
 +\begin{equation}
 +X(^{28}Si) = 1 - \left | 2Y_{e} - 1 \right | \\
 +X(p) = \left | 2Y_{e} - 1 \right |  \hspace{1cm} ​ X(n) = \left | 2Y_{e} - 1 \right | \\
 +proton-rich \hspace{1cm} neutron-rich
 +\end{equation}
  
 Finally we looked at the mass fraction of several isotopes. In particular, $^{4}$He, $^{28}$Si, $^{44}$Ti, and $^{56}$Ni. We then compare our results to that of Magkotsios //et al// with in our parameter space. ​ Finally we looked at the mass fraction of several isotopes.
