Evolution of Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars [PDF]
Annual 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]
Monthly 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 ...

CHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF ASYMPTOTIC GIANT BRANCH STARS IN M62 [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2015 We have collected UVES-FLAMES high-resolution spectra for a sample of 6 asymptotic giant branch (AGB) and 13 red giant branch (RGB) stars in the Galactic globular cluster (GC) M62 (NGC 6266).

Mass loss of stars on the asymptotic giant branch [PDF]
The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2018 As low- and intermediate-mass stars reach the asymptotic giant branch (AGB), they have developed into intriguing and complex objects that are major players in the cosmic gas/dust cycle.

ON CARBON BURNING IN SUPER ASYMPTOTIC GIANT BRANCH STARS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2015 We explore the detailed and broad properties of carbon burning in Super Asymptotic Giant Branch (SAGB) stars with 2755 MESA stellar evolution models.

Introduction to Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2016 A brief introduction on the main characteristics of the asymptotic giant branch stars (briefly: AGB) is presented. We describe a link to observations and outline basic features of theoretical modeling of these important evolutionary phases of stars.

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.

A New Catalog of Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars in Our Galaxy [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2021 We present a new catalog of 11,209 O-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars and 7172 C-rich AGB stars in our Galaxy, identifying more AGB stars in the bulge component and considering more visual carbon stars.

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 ...
