Abstract

In this contribution, I will focus on two nuclides, 26Al and19F whose origin has been uncertain for a long time and stillremains a matter of debate. I will present the contribution of ManuelForestini to the understanding of the origin of these nuclides, and inparticular to the description of their synthesis in asymptotic giant branchstars. I will also present an overview of the latest resultsconcerning 26Al and 19F and of the open questions stillto be answered.
