How to search for AGB stars in near-IR post-starburst spectra.

LANCON A., MOUHCINE M., FIOC M. and SILVA D.

Abstract (from CDS):

Based on evolutionary spectral synthesis models explicitly including the spectra of variable AGB stars, we select near-IR features that dentify the strong O-rich or C-rich AGB contributions to the near-IR light of post-starburst populations. AGB temperature scales and lifetimes remain major sources of uncertainties. We discuss applications and suggest massive post-starburst clusters as prime targets for observational tests.
