Abundances in Very Metal-Poor Stars
Metal-poor stars provide information on the characteristics and chemical evolution of the halo population of the Galaxy, the first epoch of star formation and Galaxy formation (not just locally but with relevance to high-redshift objects), and big bang nucleosynthesis. This review looks at recent developments in this subject.
متن کاملSulphur abundance in very metal-poor stars
We have obtained high-resolution high signal-to-noise spectra of the S i nearinfrared doublet at 8694 Å in eight metal-poor stars with metallicities in the range −0.6 ≤[Fe/H]≤ −3.0. Elemental sulphur abundances were derived for six targets and upper limits were set for two of the most metal-poor stars in the sample. The sulphur doublet at 8694.62 Å has been detected in three stars (HD19445, HD2...
متن کاملEuropium Isotopic Abundances in Very Metal-poor Stars
Europium isotopic abundance fractions are reported for the very metal-poor, neutron-capture-rich giant stars CS 22892-052, HD 115444, and BD +17◦3248. The abundance fractions, derived from analysis of several strong Eu II lines appearing in high-resolution spectra of these stars, are in excellent agreement with each other and with their values in the Solar System: fr(Eu)≃ fr(Eu) ≃ 0.5. Detailed...
متن کاملDetailed Abundances of Two Very Metal-poor Stars in Dwarf Galaxies
The most metal-poor stars in dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) can show the nucleosynthetic patterns of one or a few supernovae. These supernovae could have zero metallicity, making metal-poor dSph stars the closest surviving links to Population III stars. Metal-poor dSph stars also help to reveal the formation mechanism of the Milky Way halo. We present the detailed abundances from Keck/HIRES ...
متن کاملOxygen Abundances in Metal-poor Stars
We present oxygen abundances derived from both the permitted and forbidden oxygen lines for 55 subgiants and giants with [Fe/H] values between −2.7 and solar with the goal of understanding the discrepancy in the derived abundances. A first attempt, using Teff values from photometric calibrations and surface gravities from luminosities, obtained agreement between the indicators for turn-off star...
