Thermal pulses and dredge-up in AGB stars

We review our current understanding of thermally pulsing AGB evolution, with emphasis on quantitative uncertainties in the third dredge-up process. We describe results obtained with an implicit and simultaneous method of solving for stellar structure, convective mixing and nuclear burning, using Egg...
