Nucleosynthesis 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...
متن کاملThermally Pulsing AGB Models of Intermediate Mass Stars
We present a set of models of AGB stars with initial mass larger than 5 M⊙ as obtained with the FRANEC code. It includes model of Z=0.02 and Z=0.001, with and without mass loss.
متن کاملDeep Dredge-up in Intermediate-Mass Thermally Pulsing AGB Stars
We present results of the evolution of AGB stars of 3M⊙ and 5M⊙ with solar metallicity calculated with the Eggleton stellar evolution code (stars), which has a fully implicit and simultaneous method for solving for the stellar structure, convective mixing and nuclear burning. We introduce the concept of a viscous mesh in order to improve the numerical stability of the calculations. For the 5M⊙ ...
متن کاملNucleosynthesis of s-elements in zero-metal AGB stars
Contrary to previous expectations, recent evolutionary models of zero-metallicity stars show that the development of mixing episodes at the beginning of the AGB phase allows lowand intermediate-mass stars to experience thermal pulses. If these stars, like their metal-rich counterparts, also experience partial mixing of protons from the H-rich envelope into the C-rich layers at the time of the t...
متن کاملPost-AGB stars as testbeds of nucleosynthesis in AGB stars
We construct a data base of 125 post-AGB objects (including R CrB and extreme helium stars) with published photospheric parameters (effective temperature and gravity) and chemical composition. We estimate the masses of the postAGB stars by comparing their position in the (log Teff , log g) plane with theoretical evolutionary tracks of different masses. We construct various diagrams, with the ai...
