5 M¯ evolution
Semiconvection
Semiconvection is the term applied to the slow mixing that goeson in a region that is stable by the strict Ledoux criterion but unstable by the Schwarzschild criterion.
Generally it is thought that this process does not contribute appreciably to energy transport (which is by radiation diffusion in semiconvectivezones), but it does slowly mix the composition. Its efficiency can be measured by a semiconvective diffusion coefficient that determineshow rapidly this mixing occurs.
Many papers have been written both regarding the effects of semiconvectionon stellar evolution and the estimation of this diffusion coefficient.
There are three places it is known to have potentially large effects:
• Following hydrogen burning just outside the helium core• During helium burning to determine the size of the C-O core• During silicon burning
One of the major effects of semiconvectionis to adjust the H/He abundance profilejust outside the H-depleted core (the helium core)

Mass loss – general features
See Chiosi & Maeder, ARAA, 24, 329 (1986) for a review
For how mass loss rates are measured see Dupree, ARAA, 24, 377(1986) – high resolution spectroscopy in IR, optical and uv; also radio measurements
For a review of the physics of mass loss see Castor in Physical Processes in Red Giants, ed. Iben and Renzini, Dordrecht: Reidel. See also Castor, Abott, & Klein, ApJ, 195, 157 (1975)
In massive stars, mass loss is chiefly a consequence of radiation pressure on grains and atoms. In quite massive stars, shocks and turbulence may be very important.

Mass Loss – Implications in Massive Stars
1) May reveal interior abundances as surface is peeled off ofthe star. E.g., CN processing, s-process, He, etc.
2) Structurally, the helium and heavy element core – onceits mass has been determined is insensitive to the presence of the envelope. If the entire envelope is lost however,the star enters a phase of rapid Wolf-Rayet mass loss that does greatly affect everything – the explosion, light curve,nucleosynthesis and remnant properties. A massive hydrogen envelope may also make the star more difficult to explode.
3) Mass loss sets an upper bound to the luminosity of redsupergiants. This limit is metallicity dependent.For solar metallicity, the maximum mass star that
dies with a hydrogen envelope attached is about 35 solar masses.
4) Mass loss – either in a binary or a strong wind – may be necessary to understand the relatively small mass of Type Ib supernova progenitors. In any case it is necessary to removethe envelope and make them Type I.
5) The nucleosynthesis ejected in the winds of starscan be important – especially WR-star winds.
6) In order to make gamma-ray bursts in the collapsarmodel for gamma-ray bursts, the final mass of the helium core must be large. Also the mass loss rateinferred from the optical afterglows of GRBs implya relatively low mass loss rate.
7) The winds of presupernova stars influence the radio luminosity of the supernova
8) Mass loss can influence whether the presupernova staris a red or blue supergiant.
9) The calculation of mass loss rates from theory is an important laboratory test ground for radiation hydrodynamics.
The Wolf-Rayet star WR224is found in the nebula M1-67which has a diameter of about 1000 AU
The wind is clearly veryclump and filamentary.

across the entire HR-diagram. This is multiplied by a factor toaccount for the metallicity-dependence of mass loss.
Studies by of O and B stars including B-supergiants, by Vink et al, A&A, 369, 574, (2001), indicate a metallicity sensitivity with scaling approximately as Z0.65.
Kudritzski, ApJ, 577, 389 (2002) in a theoretical treatmentof stellar winds (non-LTE, 2 million lines). Mass loss rate approximately proportional to ~Z1/2 down to Z = 0.0001times solar.
Wolf-Rayet stars – Langer, A&A, 220, 135, (1989)
More recently this has been divided by 2 - 3 to account foroverestimates made when clumping was ignored. Hamann andKoesterke, A&A, 335, 1003, Wellstein & Langer, A&A, 350, 148, (1998)
Models for optically thick radiation winds – Nugis and Lamers,A&A, 389, 162 (2002).
Parameterized results – Nugis and Lamers, A&A, 360, 227, (2000)
Y here is heliummass fraction at the surface. Z is metallicity atat the surface.
Wellstein and Langer (1998) corrected for Z-dependence and divided by 3 to correct for clumping is what we currently use.
Here Xs is the surface hydrogen mass fraction (WN stars)and the result should be multiplied by 1/3 (Z/Z¯)1/2..

Effects on evolution
Results:
• Fragile elements like Li, Be, B destroyed to a greater extent when rotational mixing is included. More rotation, more destruction.
• Higher mass loss
• Initially luminosities are lower (because g is lower) in rotating models. Later luminosity is higher because He-core is larger
• Broadening of the main sequence; longer main sequence lifetime
• More evidence of CN processing in rotating models. He, 13C, 14N, 17O, 23Na, and 26Al are enhanced in rapidly rotating stars while 12C, 15N, 16,18O, and 19F are depleted.
• Decrease in minimum mass for WR star formation.
These predictions are in good accord with what is observed.
