Nucleosynthesis in the s process takes place in the He-burning layers of low-mass
asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars and during the He-and C-burning phases of massive …

Nova explosions occur on the white dwarf component of a cataclysmic variable binary stellar
system that is accreting matter lost by its companion. When sufficient material has been …

We present the updated version of the code used to compute stellar evolutionary tracks in
Padova. It is the result of a thorough revision of the major input physics, together with the …

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 …

Aims. Many topical astrophysical research areas, such as the properties of planet host stars,
the nature of the progenitors of different types of supernovae and gamma ray bursts, and the …

We present results from the JINA REACLIB project, an ongoing effort to maintain a current
and accurate library of thermonuclear reaction rates for astrophysical applications. Ongoing …

An updated grid of stellar yields for low-to intermediate-mass thermally pulsing asymptotic
giant branch (AGB) stars is presented. The models cover a range in metallicity Z= 0.02 …

We present the first calculations to follow the evolution of all stable nuclei and their
radioactive progenitors in stellar models computed from the onset of central hydrogen …

We present the colibri code for computing the evolution of stars along the thermally pulsing
asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) phase. Compared to purely synthetic TP-AGB codes …

Aims. We propose the Wind of Fast Rotating Massive Stars scenario to explain the origin of
the abundance anomalies observed in globular clusters. Methods. We compute and present …
