Multiple stellar populations in globular clusters

N Bastian, C Lardo - Annual review of Astronomy and …, 2018 - annualreviews.org
Globular clusters (GCs) exhibit star-to-star variations in specific elements (eg, He, C, N, O,
Na, Al) that bear the hallmark of high-temperature H-burning. These abundance variations …

The Dawes review 2: nucleosynthesis and stellar yields of low-and intermediate-mass single stars

AI Karakas, JC Lattanzio - Publications of the Astronomical Society of …, 2014 - cambridge.org
The chemical evolution of the Universe is governed by the chemical yields from stars, which
in turn are determined primarily by the initial stellar mass. Even stars as low as 0.9 M⊙ can …

New models for the evolution of post-asymptotic giant branch stars and central stars of planetary nebulae

MMM Bertolami - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2016 - aanda.org
Context. The post-asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase is arguably one of the least
understood phases of the evolution of low-and intermediate-mass stars. The two grids of …

Concurrent formation of supermassive stars and globular clusters: implications for early self-enrichment

M Gieles, C Charbonnel, MGH Krause… - Monthly Notices of …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
We present a model for the concurrent formation of globular clusters (GCs) and
supermassive stars (SMSs,≳ 103 M⊙) to address the origin of the HeCNONaMgAl …

Updated stellar yields from asymptotic giant branch models

AI Karakas - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2010 - academic.oup.com
An updated grid of stellar yields for low-to intermediate-mass thermally pulsing asymptotic
