Third-dredge-up oxygen in planetary nebulae.

PEQUIGNOT D., WALSH J.R., ZIJLSTRA A.A. and DUDZIAK G.

Abstract (from CDS):

The planetary nebulae He2-436 and Wray16-423 in the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy appear to result from nearly twin stars, except that third-dredge-up carbon is more abundant in He2-436. A thorough photoionization-model analysis implies that ratios Ne/O, S/O and Ar/O are significantly smaller in He2-436, indicative of third-dredge-up oxygen enrichment. The enrichment of oxygen with respect to carbon is (7±4)%. Excess nitrogen in Wray 16-423 suggests third dredge-up of late-CN-cycle products even in these low-mass, intermediate-metallicity stars.
