Observed trends of elemental abundances with evolutionary stage (filled circles with error bars) compared to predictions from stellar evolution models including atomic diffusion and turbulent mixing with three different efficiencies. Note how the T5.8 model falls below or above the best‐fitting T6.0 model depending on the element (likewise the T6.09 model). For details, see text.
