Table 1

The production factor and the chemical abundances as a function of the stellar (initial) mass of an AGB star of solar metallicity (Karakas & Lattanzio 2007).

Production factor: Wind’s abundances:
F = log  [⟨Xi,final⟩/⟨Xi,initial⟩]   [Xi]/[Xi,

12C 16O 14N 12C 16O 14N
4 M 0.33  −2.6 × 10-2 0.42 2.1 0.9 2.6
5 M 0.14  −4.3 × 10-2 0.61 1.4 1.0 4.1
6 M  −0.22  −8.1 × 10-2 0.91 0.6 0.8 8.1

Notes. For the case of 5 M, the AGB mass-loss rates of Vassiliadis & Wood (1993) were used.
