Lithium production by thermohaline mixing in low-mass, low-metallicity asymptotic giant branch stars
We examine the effects of thermohaline mixing on the composition of the envelopes of low-metallicity asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars. We have evolved models of 1, 1.5 and 2M and of metallicity Z = 10 −4 from the pre-main sequence to the end of the thermal pulsing asymptotic giant branch with thermohaline mixing applied throughout the simulations. We find that the small amount of He that rem...
متن کاملMass-luminosity relation of low mass stars
The data on dynamic masses and multicolor photometry of 56 M-type components of binary/multiple systems was collected. Critical evaluation of late type stars bolometric correction scales have been performed. Our refined and reduced data is comparedwith published empirical and theoreticalmassluminosity relations. Our data does not exclude the existence of a step-like feature at MV = 12m. The bes...
متن کاملEvolution of Low Mass Stars
We describe the evolution of low mass (1.5 < M=M < 0:02) stars and brown dwarfs starting from the hydrostatic phases of pre{main sequence contraction and evolving along the deuterium and lithium burning to reach the hydrogen burning main sequence or the brown dwarf degenerate cooling. With the help of new models computed by us, which we describe to the community taking advantage of this occasio...
متن کاملYields from Low Metallicity, Intermediate Mass Agb Stars: Their Role for the Cno and Lithium Abundances in Globular Cluster Stars
We present the results of extensive computation of the Thermal Pulse phase AGB evolution of stars of metallicities in mass fraction 2 10 ?4 Z 0:01, for those masses in the range 2:5 M=M 6, which suuer the Hot Bottom Burning (HBB) phase. The evolution is fully computed, by assuming a mass loss rate consistent with the observations of the Magellanic Clouds lithium rich stars, and modelling convec...
متن کاملTheoretical models of low-mass, pre-main sequence rotating stars I. The effects on lithium depletion
Rotating stellar models of 1.2 M down to 0.6 M have been computed to investigate the effects of rotation on the lithium depletion of low-mass, pre-main sequence stars. The models were generated under three different rotation laws (rigid body rotation, local conservation of angular momentum over the whole star, and local conservation of angular momentum in radiative zones and rigid body rotation...
