Abstract

This paper presents recent stellar evolutionary calculations of the Asymptotic Giant Branch evolution of a 5M⊙ model. It is found that temperatures at the base of the convective envelope reach up to almost 100 million degrees, high enough for much nucleo-synthesis to occur. Some implications are discussed briefly.
