Current models for the evolution of AGB stars
Abstract
Description
While the basic properties of AGB stellar evolution are well established, comprehensive observational studies of late phases of intermediate mass stars continue to generate puzzles for current stellar models. Here, I review current techniques to model AGB stars, and I discuss important aspects of current research of AGB (and post-AGB) stellar evolution with a particular focus on how these interrelate.
