Evolution of CNO abundances in the Universe
Nikos Prantzos (Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris)
TL;DR
This paper reviews current stellar yields of CNO elements, including recent advances, and discusses how these yields help interpret observations across different galactic and extragalactic environments.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive overview of stellar CNO yields and explores their implications for understanding chemical evolution in various cosmic systems.
Findings
Stellar yields of CNO elements vary with stellar rotation and mass loss.
CNO yields help interpret chemical abundances in the Milky Way and extragalactic systems.
Recent models improve understanding of galaxy chemical evolution.
Abstract
After summarizing the most important features of current stellar yields of CNO elements (including recent results concerning rotating and mass losing stars) I discuss how these yields may help to interpret relevant observations in the local Galaxy, the Milky Way disk and extragalactic systems (extragalactic HII regions and DLAs).
