Description
Sources of nucleosynthesis may occur in different interstellar environments, from empty fields through clusters of sources, such as in massive-star groups. Such differences are important for the recycling times and efficiencies towards next-generation star formation. With radioactivity from 26Al we have a tool to trace ejecta flows over millions of years. With 60Fe (and 244Pu) in terrestrial sediments we have proof of flows towards Earth. We will discuss lessons from 26Al spectroscopy and its theoretical foundations to the issue of the fate of ejecta from sources of nucleosynthesis
