Iron Convection Zones in B, A, and F Stars

Stellar models, including all effects of atomic diffusion and radiative accelerations, are evolved from the pre-main sequence to the giant branch for stars of 1.3 to 4.0 M☉, with metallicity ranging from Z0 = 0.01 to 0.03. It is shown that radiative accelerations lead to the accumulation of iron-pea... View More
