Horizontal-branch evolution with time-dependent convective overshootingHorizontal-branch (HB) sequences have been computed for different rates of convective overshooting at the edge of the convective core. We find that the convective core undergoes a series of 'breathing pulses' during most of the HB phase. The average behavior of these sequences closely mimics the behavior of sequences computed with canonical semiconvection.
