Nucleosynthesis in Intermediate Mass Stars
We discuss nucleosynthesis within 6 M models with Z = 0:02, 0:008 and 0:004. The emphasis is on the AGB phase of evolution, with particular reference to thermal pulses and Hot Bottom Burning. We nd strong CN cycling, with substantial Al production, especially at low metallicities.
متن کاملNucleosynthesis in Intermediate Mass Agb Stars
We present a summary of the main sites for nucleosynthesis in intermediate mass Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars. We then discuss some detailed evolutionary models and how these have been used to create a synthetic evolution code which calculates the nucleosynthesis very rapidly, enabling us to investigate changes in some uncertain parameters in AGB evolution, such as mass-loss and dredge-up...
متن کاملNucleosynthesis in Low- and Intermediate-mass Stars: an Overview
An overview of the main phases of the evolution of lowand intermediatemass stars is presented, and the different types of nucleosynthesis operating from the pre-main sequence up to and including the asymptotic giant branch phase described. The surface abundance modifications brought by each nucleosynthesis process is also briefly discussed. To appear in: Tours Symposium on Nuclear Physics III, ...
متن کاملNucleosynthesis in Intermediate-Mass Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars
We summarise the main properties of Asymptotic Giant Branch stars, including their structure, evolution and nucleosynthesis. The main physical mechanisms are outlined, as are the uncertainties. In keeping with the multi-disciplinary nature of this meeting, this paper is designed for those who are not experts in stellar structure. 1 What Is An AGB Star? Most stars will pass through the Asymptoti...
متن کاملNucleosynthesis of light elements inside thermally pulsing AGB stars I. The case of intermediate-mass stars
The structural and nucleosynthetic evolution of 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7M stars with two metallicities (Z = 0.005 and 0.02) has been computed in detail, from the early pre-main sequence phase up to the thermally pulsing (TP) AGB phase or the onset of off-center carbon burning. Typically 10 to 20 thermal pulses have been followed for each TP-AGB object. This homogeneous and quite large set of models all...
