Evidence of Third Dredge-up in Post-AGB Stars in Galactic Globular Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
To better understand the mixing and mass loss experienced by low-mass stars as they ascend the asymptotic giant branch (AGB), I have gathered from the literature the abundances of CNO and s -process elements in post-AGB stars in Galactic globular ...

Insights into AGB Nucleosynthesis Thanks to Spectroscopic Abundance Measurements in Intrinsic and Extrinsic Stars

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
The foundations of stellar nucleosynthesis have been established more than 70 years ago. Since then, much progress has been made, both on the theoretical side, with stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis models of increasing complexity, using more and ...

On the Pre‐ and Post‐Positional Semi‐Random Graph Processes

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 819-831, April 2025.
ABSTRACT We study the semi‐random graph process, and a variant process recently suggested by Nick Wormald. We show that these two processes are asymptotically equally fast in constructing a semi‐random graph G $G$ that has property P ${\mathscr{P}}$, for the following examples of P ${\mathscr{P}}$: (1) P ${\mathscr{P}}$ is the set of graphs containing ...

Model Dust Envelopes for Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars. Carbon Stars. II. Carbon Stars [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Introduction to Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars

open access: yesJournal 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. The most important aspects of the AGB stars is not only because they are the progenitors of white dwarfs,

Ecological Implications of Germination Temperature on Native and Invasive Rumex Spp.

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Rumex alpinus L. (R. alpinus) is a non‐native invasive plant in Czech mountain regions, altering ecosystem structure and function in protected areas. Rumex obtusifolius L. (R. obtusifolius) is a native species and a problematic weed in Czech meadows, while Rumex longifolius DC. (R.

Mira Variables Based on Emission Lines in LAMOST DR9

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a sample of 335 Mira variables, extracted from DR9 of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) survey. These variables are characterized by the Balmer emissions (H δ , H γ , H β , and H α ) and the metal emissions

Giant Planet Engulfment by Evolved Giant Stars: Light Curves, Asteroseismology, and Survivability

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
About ten percent of Sun-like (1–2 M _⊙ ) stars will engulf a 1–10 M _J planet as they expand during the red giant branch (RGB) or asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase of their evolution.

Blueprint for a Universal Theory of Learning to Read: The Combinatorial Model

open access: yesReading Research Quarterly, Volume 60, Issue 2, April/May/June 2025.
The Reading Tree. Abstract In this essay, I outline some of the essential ingredients of a universal theory of reading acquisition, one that seeks to highlight commonalities while embracing the global diversity of languages, writing systems, and cultures.

Envelope loss of RGB/AGB stars and the formation of hot subdwarfs

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Low mass stars may lose their envelopes in the first giant branch (RGB) or the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) via envelope ejection (i.e. superwind). The envelope loss of AGB stars leads to the formation of carbon-oxygen (CO) white dwarfs (WDs), while the
