The stellar origin of 7Li - Do AGB stars contribute a substantial fraction of the local Galactic lithium abundance? [PDF]
We adopt up-to-date 7Li yields from asymptotic giant branch stars in order to study the temporal evolution of 7Li in the solar neighbourhood in the context of a revised version of the two-infall model for the chemical evolution of our galaxy. We consider

On the alumina dust production in the winds of O-rich asymptotic giant branch stars [PDF]
The O-rich Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars experience strong mass loss with efficient dust condensation and they are major sources of dust in the interstellar medium.

Spitzer observations of large amplitude variables in the LMC and IC 1613
The 3.6 and 4.5 ìm characteristics of asymptotic giant branch variables in the LMC and IC 1613 are discussed. For C-rich Mira variables there is a very clear periodluminosity-colour relation, where the [3.6] .

A sequence of nitrogen-rich very red giants in the globular cluster NGC 1851
We present the abundances of N in a sample of 62 stars on the red giant branch (RGB) in the peculiar globular cluster NGC 1851. The values of [N/Fe] ratio were obtained by comparing the flux measured in the observed spectra with that from synthetic ...

The distance of M33 and the stellar population in its outskirts
We present deep V,I photometry of two $9.4' x 9.4' field in the outer regions of the M33 galaxy. We obtain a robust detection of the luminosity of the Red Giant Branch Tip (I{TRGB}=20.72 +- 0.08) from which we derived a new estimate of the distance ...
