We present the updated version of the code used to compute stellar evolutionary tracks in
Padova. It is the result of a thorough revision of the major input physics, together with the …

Aims. Many topical astrophysical research areas, such as the properties of planet host stars,
the nature of the progenitors of different types of supernovae and gamma ray bursts, and the …

An updated grid of stellar yields for low-to intermediate-mass thermally pulsing asymptotic
giant branch (AGB) stars is presented. The models cover a range in metallicity Z= 0.02 …

Aims. We propose the Wind of Fast Rotating Massive Stars scenario to explain the origin of
the abundance anomalies observed in globular clusters. Methods. We compute and present …

We present the colibri code for computing the evolution of stars along the thermally pulsing
asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) phase. Compared to purely synthetic TP-AGB codes …

For millennia, mankind has been fascinated by the marvel of the starry night sky. Yet, a
proper scientific understanding of how stars form, shine, and die is a relatively recent …

Context. The availability of asteroseismic constraints for a large sample of stars from the
missions CoRoT and Kepler paves the way for various statistical studies of the seismic …

Numerical values of charged-particle thermonuclear reaction rates for nuclei in the A= 14 to
40 region are tabulated. The results are obtained using a method, based on Monte Carlo …

Context. Numerous spectroscopic observations provide compelling evidence for non-
canonical processes that modify the surface abundances of low-and intermediate-mass …

To a high degree many aspects of the large-scale behavior of objects in the Universe are
governed by the underlying nuclear physics. In fact the shell structure of nuclear physics is …
