Rubidium-Rich Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2006
A long-debated issue concerning the nucleosynthesis of neutron-rich elements in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars is the identification of the neutron source. We report intermediate-mass (4 to 8 solar masses) AGB stars in our Galaxy that are rubidium-rich as a result of overproduction of the long-lived radioactive isotope 87

Evolution on the Asymptotic Giant Branch

Astronomy and Astrophysics Library, 2012
Stars of low and intermediate mass experience recurrent thermal instabilities during the phase of double (hydrogen and helium) shell burning. During this phase they populate the Asymptotic Giant Branch. The thermal instabilities give rise to drastic, but short-lived structure variations, mixing episodes and specific phases of nucleosynthesis.

Evolution of Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2005
▪ Abstract  The current status of modeling the evolution and nucleosynthesis of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars is reviewed. The principles of AGB evolution have been investigated in recent years leading to improved and refined models, for example with regard to hot-bottom burning or the third dredge-up.

Asymptotic Giant Branch and Super-Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars: Modelling Dust Production at Solar Metallicity [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017
We present dust yields for asymptotic giant branch (AGB) and super--asymptotic giant branch (SAGB) stars of solar metallicity. Stars with initial mass $1.5~M_{\odot} \leq M_{\rm ini} \leq 3~M_{\odot}$ reach the carbon star stage during the AGB phase and produce mainly solid carbon and SiC.

Beyond the asymptotic giant branch

2008
The evolution of the IR spectra of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars has been obtained by time-dependent radiative transfer models. These models are compared with IRAS photometric and spectroscopic observations. Extrapolation of the models to beyond the AGB lead to predictions of the spectra of proto-planetary nebulae.

Nucleosynthesis in asymptotic giant branch stars

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2014
The nucleosynthesis in asymptotic giant branch stars (briefly: AGB)is a challenging and fascinating subject in the theory of stellar evolution and important for observations as well. This is because about of half the heavy elements beyond iron are synthesized during thermal pulsation phases of these stars.
