The nuclear path of the CNO cycles in massive stars
Abstract
We discuss how the nuclear path of the CNO cycles in massive stars can be employed as a quality indicator for model atmosphere analyses and for the derivation of tight observational constraints for developing a better understanding of the evolution of rotating massive stars.
