Scientific paper

Microscopic diffusion of the trace elements He3, Li7 and Be9 have been incorporated into the rotating stellar evolution code at Yale. The consequences of diffusion and rotational mixing are investigated for solar models and young cluster stars. The inhibition of diffusion due to rotational mixing (and vice versa) is explored. A comparison is made to abundance measurements of Li7 and rotational velocities in the Sun and young cluster stars. This work was partially supported by NASA grants NAG5--1486 and NAGW--2531.
