Descripción
We present new theoretical stellar yields and surface abundances for
asymptotic giant branch (AGB) models with a metallicity appropriate for
stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC, Z = 0.0028, [Fe/H] ≈ -0.7).
New evolutionary sequences and post-processing nucleosynthesis results
are presented for initial masses between 1 and 7 M⊙,
where the 7 M⊙ is a super-AGB star with an O-Ne core.
Models above 1.15 M⊙ become carbon rich during the AGB,
and hot bottom burning begins in models M ≥ 3.75 M⊙.
We present stellar surface abundances as a function of thermal pulse
number for elements between C to Bi and for a selection of isotopic
ratios for elements up to Fe and Ni (e.g.
12C/13C), which can be compared to observations.
The integrated stellar yields are presented for each model in the grid
for hydrogen, helium, and all stable elements from C to Bi. We present
evolutionary sequences of intermediate-mass models between 4 and 7
M⊙ and nucleosynthesis results for three masses (M =
3.75, 5, and 7 M⊙) including s-process elements for two
widely used AGB mass-loss prescriptions. We discuss our new models in
the context of evolved AGB and post-AGB stars in the SMCs, barium stars
in our Galaxy, the composition of Galactic globular clusters including
Mg isotopes with a similar metallicity to our models, and to pre-solar
grains which may have an origin in metal-poor AGB stars.

Nucleosíntesis y procesos moleculares en los últimos estados de la evolución estelar
Las estrellas de masa baja e intermedia (M < 8 masas solares, Ms) representan la mayoría de estrellas en el Cosmos y terminan sus vidas en la Rama Asintótica de las Gigantes (AGB) - justo antes de formar Nebulosas Planetarias (NPs) - cuando experimentan procesos nucleosintéticos y moleculares complejos. Las estrellas AGB son importantes
