Massive stars: stellar models and stellar yields, impact on Galactic Archaeology

Abstract

The physics of massive stars depends (at least) on convection, mass loss by stellar winds, rotation, magnetic fields and multiplicity. We briefly discuss the impact of the first three processes on the stellar yields trying to identify some guidelines for future works.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, in press for the proceedings of IAU Symposium 334, Rediscovering our Galaxy, C.
