Description
Presolar SiC grains come from a variety of kinds of stars, but the most common type, the mainstream grains, are
believed to have formed in the outflows of low mass, carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars.
Measurements of the isotopic composition of the s-process elements Sr, Zr, Mo, Ru and Ba in individual
mainstream SiC grains allow constraints of the range of conditions used in stellar models of AGB stars.
