Nucleosynthesis Predictions for Intermediate-Mass Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars: Comparison to Observations of Type I Planetary Nebulae

AI Karakas, MA van Raai, M Lugaro… - The Astrophysical …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
Type I planetary nebulae (PNe) have high He/H and N/O ratios and are thought to be
descendants of stars with initial masses of∼ 3–8 M☉. These characteristics indicate that the …
