Abstract

This research is to study the effects of individual metal elements(C, N, O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, and Fe) on the standard stellar models. The mixtures of the stellar models have been constructed to analyze the stars, extremely changed in the abundance of these elements. Therefore the mixture are based on the recent observation of stars in globular clusters. And the mass and metallicity grids have been decided in range $0.7{\sim}1.0M_{\odot}$ and 0.0002 ~ 0.007, respectively. The evolutionary tracks and isochrones, as well as the physical changes at each evolutionary phase, have been analyzed. Consequently, we present the mechanisms of the physical changes at each phase, and the quantified effects of the individual elements.
