Evolution of Low- and Intermediate-Mass Stars to the End of the Asymptotic Giant Branch with Mass Loss
- E. Vassiliadis, P. Wood
- Physics
- 1 August 1993
Stars with initial masses in the range 0.89≤M/M ○. ≤5.0 have been evolved from the main-sequence phase through to the end of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB). The calculations were done with…

A New Generation of PARSEC-COLIBRI Stellar Isochrones Including the TP-AGB Phase
- P. Marigo, L. Girardi, P. Wood
- Physics
- 19 January 2017
We introduce a new generation of PARSEC-COLIBRI stellar isochrones that include a detailed treatment of the thermally-pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) phase, and covering a wide range of…
Bump Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds: Metallicities, the Distances to the LMC and SMC, and the Pulsation-Evolution Mass Discrepancy
We use nonlinear pulsation models to reproduce the observed light and color curves for two samples of bump Cepheid variables, 19 from the Large Magellanic Cloud and 9 from the Small Magellanic Cloud.…
The Hubble Space Telescope Key Project on the Extragalactic Distance Scale. XIII. The Metallicity Dependence of the Cepheid Distance Scale
- R. Kennicutt, P. Stetson, P. Wood
- Physics
- 3 December 1997
Uncertainty in the metal-abundance dependence of the Cepheid variable period-luminosity (PL) relation remains one of the outstanding sources of systematic error in the extragalactic distance scale…
Long-period variables in the Magellanic Clouds: Supergiants, AGB stars, supernova precursors, planetary nebula precursors, and enrichment of the interstellar medium
- P. Wood, M. Bessell, M. Fox
- Physics
- 1 September 1983
Infrared JHK magnitudes and low-dispersion red spectra have been obtained for 90 long-period variables (LPVs) in the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds. The LPVs fall into two distinct groups, core…
Long-period variables in the Large Magellanic Cloud. II. Infrared photometry, spectral classification, AGB evolution, and spatial distribution
Infrared JHK photometry and visual spectra have been obtained for a large sample of long-period variables (LPVs) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Various aspects of the asymptotic giant branch…
A library of 0.5 to 2.5 m spectra of luminous cool stars
- A. Lançon, P. Wood
- Physics
- 1 October 2000
We present a library of 0:5 2:5 m digital spectra of cool, mostly variable, giant and supergiant stars which should be useful for spectral synthesis applications, as well as for comparison with…
Variable Red Giants in the LMC: Pulsating Stars and Binaries?

- 1 April 2000
Abstract Infrared J and K photometry has been obtained of all red giants in the half square degree region of the LMC bar searched for variables using the MACHO database byWood et al. (1999). The…

- T. Lebzelter, P. Wood
- Physics
- 21 July 2005
Received ; accepted Abstract. We have identified 22 new variable red giants in 47 Tuc and dete rmined periods for another 8 previously known variables. All red giants redder than V-Ic = 1.8 are…
