EVOLUTION AND NUCLEOSYNTHESIS OF ASYMPTOTIC GIANT BRANCH STARS IN THREE MAGELLANIC CLOUD CLUSTERS

Open access
Kamath, D., Karakas, A. I., Wood, P. R.·2012·The Astrophysical Journal

Abstract

We present stellar evolutionary sequences for asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the Magellanic Cloud clusters NGC 1978, NGC 1846, and NGC 419. The new stellar models for the three clusters match the observed effective temperatures on the giant branches, the oxygen-rich to carbon-rich transition luminosities, and the AGB-tip luminosities. A major finding is that a large amount of convective overshoot (up to 3 pressure scale heights) is required at the base of the convective envelope during third dredge-up in order to get the correct oxygen-rich to carbon-rich transition luminosity. The stellar evolution sequences are used as input for detailed nucleosynthesis calculations. For NGC 1978 and NGC 1846 we compare our model results to the observationally derived abundances of carbon and oxygen. We find that additional mixing processes (extra mixing) are required to explain the observed abundance patterns. For NGC 1846 we conclude that non-convective extra mixing processes are required on both the red giant branch and the AGB, in agreement with previous studies. For NGC 1978 it is possible to explain the C/O and 12 C/ 13 C abundances of both the O-rich and the C-rich AGB stars by assuming that the material in the intershell region contains high abundances of both C and O. This may occur during a thermal pulse when convective overshoot at the inner edge of the flash-driven convective pocket dredges C and O from the core to the intershell. For NGC 419 we provide our predicted model abundance values although there are currently no published observed abundance studies for the AGB stars in this cluster.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Deeper mixing alters the predictions of the first dredge-up, but there is a saturation of composition changes such that the small increase needed in the depth of the first dredge-up does not produce an observable difference in the envelope abundances.

    “Of course this deeper mixing alters the predictions of the FDU; however it appears that there is a saturation of composition changes such that the small increase needed in the depth of the FDU does not produce an observable difference in the envelope abundances”
  • The first shell flashes with dredge-up occur for core masses M_min_c ≈ 0.56-0.58 M⊙.

    “The first shell flashes with dredge-up occur for core masses of M min c ≈ 0 . 56 -0 . 58 M ⊙ .”
  • Such large overshoot leads to λ values in the range 0.66 to 0.82 for the best fitting models.

    “Such large overshoot leads to λ values in the range 0.66 to 0.82 for the best fitting models.”
  • Kamath et al. (2012) found that a large amount of convective overshoot (up to 3 pressure scale heights) is required at the base of the convective envelope during third dredge-up to get the correct O-rich to C-rich transition luminosity.

  • Observations of F in C-rich AGB stars in the LMC cluster NGC 1846 show a discrepancy with models, with observed F abundance increasing more strongly with C/O ratio than in the theoretical model.

    “Observations of F in the Crich AGB stars in the LMC cluster NGC 1846 however show a discrepancy with models (Lebzelter et al. 2008; Kamath et al. 2012), with the observed F abundance increasing more strongly with the C/O ratio than in the theoretical model.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
