Evolution and Nucleosynthesis of Zero‐Metal Intermediate‐Mass Stars

Year: 2001

Type: article

Abstract: New stellar models with masses ranging between 4 and 8 M ☉ , Z = 0, and Y = 0.23 are presented. The models have been evolved from the pre-main sequence up to the asymptotic giant branch (AGB). At variance with previous claims, we find that these updated stellar models do experience thermal pulses in the AGB phase. In particular, we show the following:
