Dust production from sub-solar to super-solar metallicity in Thermally Pulsing Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars

Ambra Nanni, Alessandro Bressan, Paola Marigo +3

We discuss the dust chemistry and growth in the circumstellar envelopes (CSEs) of Thermally Pulsing Asymptotic Giant Branch (TP-AGB) star models computed with the COLIBRI code, at…

Calibrating the role of TP-AGB stars in the cosmic matter cycle

Paola Marigo

In the last ten years three main facts about the thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) have become evident: 1) the modelling of the TP-AGB phase is critical for the de…

Constraining Mass-Loss & Lifetimes of Low Mass, Low Metallicity AGB Stars

Philip Rosenfield, Paola Marigo, Leo Girardi +7

The evolution and lifetimes of thermally pulsating asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) stars suffer from significant uncertainties. We present a detailed framework for constraining mo…

New PARSEC evolutionary tracks of massive stars at low metallicity: testing canonical stellar evolution in nearby star forming dwarf galaxies

Jing Tang, Alessandro Bressan, Philip Rosenfield +4

We extend the {\sl\,PARSEC} library of stellar evolutionary tracks by computing new models of massive stars, from 14\Msun to 350\Msun. The input physics is the same used in the {\s…

Pre-MS depletion, accretion and primordial 7Li

P. Molaro, A. Bressan, M. Barbieri +2

We reconsider the role of pre-main sequence (pre-MS) Li depletion on the basis of new observational and theoretical evidence: i) new observations of Halpha emissions in young clust…

The ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury IX. Constraining asymptotic giant branch evolution with old metal-poor galaxies

Leo Girardi, Benjamin F. Williams, Karoline M. Gilbert +10

In an attempt to constrain evolutionary models of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase at the limit of low masses and low metallicities, we have examined the luminosity function…
