Descripción
Using the most recent results about white dwarfs (WDs) in ten open clusters, we revisit semiempirical estimates of the initial–final mass relation (IFMR) in star clusters, with emphasis on the use of stellar evolution models. We discuss the influence of these models on each step of the derivation. One intention of our work is to use consistent sets of calculations both for the isochrones and the WD cooling tracks. The second one is to derive the range of systematic errors arising from stellar evolution theory. This is achieved by using different sources for the stellar models and by varying physical assumptions and input data. We find that systematic errors, including the determination of the cluster age, are dominating the initial mass values, while observational uncertainties influence the final mass primarily. After having determined the systematic errors, the initial–final mass relation allows us finally to draw conclusions about the physics of the stellar models, in particular about convective overshooting.
