The authors compute stellar weak interaction rates for free nucleons and 226 nuclei (A = 21–60) using the methodology of Papers I and II, presenting them on a concise temperature–density grid, with full‑grid data available on magnetic tape. The resulting tables provide electron and positron emission and capture rates, along with neutrino energy loss rates, and compare these stellar rates to terrestrial decay rates when data permit. Published in ApJS (1982) with DOI 10.1086/190779.

Abstract Stellar electron and positron emission rates and continuum electron and positron capture rates, as well as the associated neutrino energy loss rates, are tabulated for the free nucleons and 226 nuclei with masses between A =21 and 60. These rates were calculated in accordance with the procedure described in Papers I and II of this series and are presented here in tabular form on an abbreviated temperature and density grid. Results of these calculations on a detailed temperature and density grid are available in computer readable form on magnetic tape upon request to MJN. The stellar weak rate calculation procedure is reviewed, and the results are discussed. Comparison of the stellar weak rates to terrestrial decay rates are made where possible.
