The impact of the revised ON reaction rate on O stellar abundances and yields

O. Straniero, C. G. Bruno, M. Aliotta +33

Context. Material processed by the CNO cycle in stellar interiors is enriched in 17O. When mixing processes from the stellar surface reach these layers, as occurs when stars become…
