The Role of Massive Agb Stars in the Early Solar System Composition

Josep M. Trigo-Rodriguez, Domingo Anibal Garcia-Hernandez, Maria Lugaro +4

We demonstrate that a massive asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star is a good candidate as the main source of short-lived radionuclides in the early solar system. Recent identificatio…

The impact of the 18F(a,p)21Ne reaction on fluorine production in AGB stars

Amanda I. Karakas, Hye Young Lee, Maria Lugaro +2

The recent experimental evaluation of the 18F(a,p)21Ne reaction rate, when considering its associated uncertainties, presented significant differences compared to the theoretical H…

Nucleosynthesis Predictions for Intermediate-Mass AGB Stars: Comparison to Observations of Type I Planetary Nebulae

Amanda I. Karakas, Mark A. van Raai, Maria Lugaro +2

Type I planetary nebulae (PNe) have high He/H and N/O ratios and are thought to be descendants of stars with initial masses of ~3-8Msun. These characteristics indicate that the pro…

Modelling the evolution and nucleosynthesis of carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars

O. R. Pols, R. G. Izzard, M. Lugaro +1

We present the results of binary population simulations of carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars. We show that nitrogen and fluorine are useful tracers of the origin of CEMP star…

Fluorine in carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars: a binary scenario

M. Lugaro, S. E. de Mink, R. G. Izzard +8

A super-solar fluorine abundance was observed in the carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) star HE 1305+0132 ([F/Fe] = +2.90, [Fe/H] = -2.5). We propose that this observation can be ex…

New reaction rate for 16O(p,gamma)17F and its influence on the oxygen isotopic ratios in massive AGB stars

C. Iliadis, C. Angulo, P. Descouvemont +2

The 16O(p,gamma)17F reaction rate is revisited with special emphasis on the stellar temperature range of T=60-100 MK important for hot bottom burning in asymptotic giant branch (AG…
