Structure of rotating models in advanced phases of the evolution for initial masses 120 M (top left; end of C-burning phase), 20 M (top right; end of C-burning phase), 7 M (bottom left; early AGB phase), and 2.5 M (bottom right; early AGB phase). We show three panels for each initial mass. Top panel: chemical structure as a function of the Lagrangian mass coordinate M(r), with the mass fractions of H (black solid line), He (black dashed), 12C (red long dashed), 14N (green solid), 16O (blue dot-dashed), 20Ne (magenta dot-long dashed), 22Ne (magenta short-long dashed), and 24Mg (black short-long dashed). Middle panel: radius as a function of the Lagrangian mass coordinate. We also indicate the location of the maximum energy production of the He- and H-burning shells. Lower panel: variation of the angular velocity as a function of the Lagrangian mass coordinate, with the labels indicating the ratio of the angular velocity to the critical velocity at selected positions.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
