vice.elements.yields.agb

Type : str [case-insensitive] or <function>

New in version 1.2.0: Prior to version 1.2.0, individual functions and objects required an attribute or keyword argument agb_model. With version 1.2.0, this was changed to a global yield setting like the supernova yields.

The current yield setting for asymptotic giant branch stars. If this is a string, it will be interpreted as a keyword denoting the built-in table from a nucleosynthesis study to adopt. If this is a <function>, it must accept stellar mass in \(M_\odot\) as the first parameter and the metallicity by mass \(Z\) as the second.

Keywords and their Associated Studies:

  • “cristallo11”: Cristallo et al. (2011) 1

  • “karakas10”: Karakas (2010) 2

Internal yield tables can be analyzed by calling vice.yields.agb.grid.

Note

Modifying yield settings here is equivalent to modifying vice.yields.agb.settings.
