Abstract

It has been known for decades that s-process elements from Sr to Pb are produced by Asymptotic Giant Branch stars. However only recently, physically-based mixing mechanisms for the formation of \(^{13}\)C have been proposed. Among them, we aim to verify the robustness of the model of a MHD induced \(^{13}\)C-pocket formation. In doing that we present results of nucleosynthesis models for low mass AGB stars, developed from the MHD scenario, compared with the isotopic abundance ratios of s-elements from presolar Mainstream SiC grains.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Among Silicon Carbide (SiC) grains those belonging to the Mainstream group are the most numerous and have carbon and nitrogen isotopic compositions that, together with traces of s-elements, hint to AGB origins.

  2. 2.

    Magnetic Hydro Dynamic.
