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.

Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars and presolar grains [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 Starting from the recognition that radioactive isotopes were present alive in the Early Solar System, inducing composition anomalies from their decay, and through the discovery that other important anomalies affected also stable species, we shall discuss

Post-AGB Stars as Tracers of AGB Nucleosynthesis: An Update
Universe, 2022 The chemical evolution of galaxies is governed by the chemical yields from stars, and here we focus on the important contributions from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars. AGB nucleosynthesis is, however, still riddled with complexities.

Extremely Metal-Poor Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars
Universe, 2022 Little is known about the first stars, but hints on this stellar population can be derived from the peculiar chemical composition of the most metal-poor objects in the Milky Way and in resolved stellar populations of nearby galaxies.

Universe, 2021 Lead (Pb) is predicted to have large over-abundances with respect to other s-process elements in Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars, especially of low metallicities.

Adiabatic Mass Loss in Binary Stars. III. From the Base of the Red Giant Branch to the Tip of the Asymptotic Giant Branch [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2020 The distinguishing feature of the evolution of close binary stars is the role played by the mass exchange between the component stars. Whether or not the mass transfer is dynamically stable is one of the essential questions in binary evolution.

Evolution of asymptotic giant branch stars. II. Optical to far-infrared isochrones with improved TP- [PDF]
, 2007 We present a large set of theoretical isochrones, whose distinctive features mostly reside on the greatly-improved treatment of the thermally-pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) phase.

Neutron Capture in Low-Mass Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars: Cross Sections and Abundance Signatures [PDF]
, 1999 Recently improved information on the stellar (n, γ) cross sections of neutron magic nuclei at N = 82, and in particular of 142Nd, turn out to represent a sensitive test for models of s-process nucleosynthesis.

The Importance of the 13C(α,n)16O Reaction in Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2018 Low-mass asymptotic giant branch stars are among the most important polluters of the interstellar medium. In their interiors, the main component (A ≳ 90) of the slow neutron capture process (the s-process) is synthesized, the most important neutron ...
