Descripción
AGB stars, in particular those of carbon types, are excellent
laboratories to constraint the theory of stellar structure, evolution
and nucleosynthesis. Despite the uncertainties still existing in the
chemical analysis of these stars, the determination of the abundances of
several key species in their atmospheres (lithium, s-elements, carbon
and magnesium isotopic ratios etc.) is an useful tool to test these
theories and the mixing processes during the AGB phase. This
contribution briefly review some recent advances on this subject.
