The evolution of stars on the AGB has been explained as episodic helium burning and neutron capture nucleosynthesis in the stellar interior, followed by the mixing of a portion of the processed material into the envelope of a star. The simple stellar evolutionary scheme M–MS–S–SC–N had been accepted. However in recent years extensive observations of AGB stars have shown that evolution of the AGB is more complicated than painted in such a simple picture.
