Isotope mass fractions (those with abundances > 10−3) of the WD ejecta after periapsis passage for different values of b. As b decreases, the fractions of 12C and 16O after TDE decrease due to more nuclear burning, and the fraction of 56Ni produced increases quickly. Intermediate-mass isotopes (Ne to Ca) first increase in fraction with decreasing b, and then decrease due to more favorable conditions for massive isotope (e.g., 56Ni) production.
