The nucleosynthesis of heavy elements in low-mass AGB stars We take 13C(α,n)16O as neutron source, allowfor variation of the mass of the nucleus with thermal pulse number andadopt the unbranched s process path from 56Fe to210Bi in an attempt to explain the overabundance of heavyelements in MS and S stars. We found stars with larger masses havelarger dilution factors because of a stronger convection and that thesestars fall in four different regions in the abundance diagram, thusenabling a rough estimate of the mass to be made. We show that, for a2.5 Msolar star, the third dredge-up stops after a certain number ofpulses because of the formation of a hollow shell structure, so the starwill show no Tc and this can account for the existence of binary systemsconsisting of a ``Tc-no'' AGB star with a main-sequence star companion.

Photoelectric observations of lunar occultations. X Photoelectric occulation results for 461 events observed during 15months are reported. They include 77 reappearances, 4 determinations ofangular diameter, 38 analyses of double or multiple stars including twopreviously unknown bright stars, and 8 previously known bright double ormultiple stars.
