• A brief description of your research aims:

  To construct new AGB evolution models using updated opacity tables and reaction rates and comparing with observations where there has been two distinct populations observed in the halo separated by alpha elements. By attempting to model these observations I hope to explain this dichotomy.

• A brief description of the nature of the computations to be performed (resources required, interactive/batch job, i/o requirements, single processor/parallel jobs, scalability):

  All our calculations are single processor jobs and require Fortran.
