Super-AGB stars: evolution and associated nucleosynthesis
M. L. Pumo, L. Siess, R. A. Zappala'
Based on evolutionary computations of 90 stellar models, we have analysed the impact of initial composition and core overshooting on the post-He-burning evolution and the associate…
Sources of uncertainties in the s-process in massive stars: convection and reaction rates
V. Costa, M. L. Pumo, A. Bonanno +1
Current models of s-nucleosynthesis in massive stars ( to ) are able to reproduce some main features of the abundance distributions of heavy i…
Self-Enrichment in Globular Clusters: Is There a Role for the Super-Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars?
M. L. Pumo, F. D'Antona, P. Ventura
In four globular clusters (GCs) a non negligible fraction of stars can be interpreted only as a very helium rich population. The evidence comes from the presence of a "blue" main s…
The s-process weak component: uncertainties due to convective overshooting
Vincenzo Costa, Maria Letizia Pumo, Alfio Bonanno +1
Using a new s-nucleosynthesis code, coupled with the stellar evolution code Star2003, we performed simulations to study the impact of the convection treatment on the s-process duri…
