Nucleosynthesis in Intermediate-Mass Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars
John C. Lattanzio
Abstract
We summarise the main properties of Asymptotic Giant Branch stars, including their structure, evolution and nucleosynthesis. The main physical mechanisms are outlined, as are the uncertainties. In keeping with the multi-disciplinary nature of this meeting, this paper is designed for those who are not experts in stellar structure.
