Abstract

Abstract We present the standard models for small and intermediate main sequence stars and we discuss some of the problems arising with semiconvection and overshooting. The surface abundance of Li serves as a test for other physical mechanisms, including microscopic and turbulent diffusion, rotation and mass loss.
