Abstract
Detailed evolutionary calculations show that Coulomb interactions between the charged particles of a stellar plasma reduce the core mass at which a low mass red giant undergoes the helium flash (contrary to a recent claim). This has implications for the determination of the rate of mass loss from red giants.KeywordsGlobular ClusterStellar EvolutionAsymptotic Giant BranchCoulomb CorrectionAsymptotic Giant Branch StarThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
