Multiple Stellar Populations in Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars of Galactic Globular Clusters [PDF]
, 2021 Multiple stellar populations (MPs) are a distinct characteristic of globular clusters (GCs). Their general properties have been widely studied among main-sequence, red giant branch (RGB), and horizontal branch (HB) stars, but a common framework is still ...

Synthesis of thorium and uranium in asymptotic giant branch stars [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2022 The intermediate neutron capture process (i-process) operates at neutron densities between those of the slow and rapid neutron-capture processes. It can be triggered by the ingestion of protons in a convective helium-burning region.

Turbulent dynamo in asymptotic giant branch stars [PDF]
, 2002 Using recent results on the operation of turbulent dynamos, we show that a turbulent dynamo can amplify a large scale magnetic field in the envelopes of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars.

A H I IMAGING SURVEY OF ASYMPTOTIC GIANT BRANCH STARS [PDF]
, 2013 We present an imaging study of a sample of eight asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the HI 21-cm line. Using observations from the Very Large Array, we have unambiguously detected HI emission associated with the extended circumstellar envelopes of ...

Thes‐Process in Rotating Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars [PDF]
, 2003 (abridged) We model the nucleosynthesis during the thermal pulse phase of a rotating, solar metallicity AGB star of 3M_sun. Rotationally induced mixing during the thermal pulses produces a layer (~2E-5M_sun) on top of the CO-core where large amounts of ...

Asymptotic giant branch and super-asymptotic giant branch stars: modelling dust production at solar metallicity [PDF]
, 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 ...

A Catalog of GALEX Ultraviolet Emission from Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars [PDF]
, 2017 We have performed a comprehensive study of the UV emission detected from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX). Of the 468 AGB stars in our sample, 316 were observed by GALEX.

Model Dust Envelopes for Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars. Carbon Stars. II. Carbon Stars [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1995 We have modeled the dust envelopes around carbon stars with close attention to the evolution of the structure of the dust shells. We use various dust density distributions to take account the effect of the superwind due to the helium shell flash by ...

Stellar Models and Yields of Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars [PDF]
Publications Astronomical Society of Australia, 2007 We present stellar yields calculated from detailed models of low and intermediate-mass asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars. We evolve models with a range of mass from 1 to 6Msun, and initial metallicities from solar to 1/200th of the solar metallicity ...
