Figure 23: Integrated heat released in the crust, Q (ρ) (per one accreted nucleon) versus ρ, assuming initial ashes of pure 56Fe. Solid line: HZ* model of Haensel & Zdunik [188], with Ai = 56 . Dash-dotted line: with pycnonuclear fusion blocked until Z = Zmin = 4. Based on Haensel & Zdunik [188]. Figure made by J.L. Zdunik.
