Galactic Cosmochronometry from Radioactive Elements in the Spectra of Very Old Metal-poor Stars
In a short review of neutron-capture elemental abundances in Galactic halo stars, emphasis is placed on the use of these elements to estimate the age of the Galactic halo. Two prominent characteristics of neutron-capture elements in halo stars are their large star-to-star scatter in the overall abundance level with respect to lighter elements, and the dominance of r-process abundance patterns a...
متن کاملSurface gravities of very metal-poor stars from Hipparcos parallaxes
Wediscuss some consequences for the determination of the surface gravity parameter of very metal-poor halo dwarfs in the new light shed upon these objects from the Hipparcos astrometry. Whereas it has become clear that standard spectroscopic LTE iron ionization equilibria are prone to systematic errors, in the sense, that stages of evolution are predicted that are actually not yet reached, the ...
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 کاملAbundances 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 کاملBoron in Very Metal-Poor Stars
We have observed the B I λ 2497 Å line to derive the boron abundances of two very metal-poor stars selected to help in tracing the origin and evolution of this element in the early Galaxy: BD +23◦3130 and HD 84937. The observations were conducted using the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope. A very detailed abundance analysis via spectral synthesis has been...
