The Lowest Metallicity Stars from SDSS/SEGUE
The first extension of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-II), which included the program SEGUE: Sloan Extension for Galactic Understanding and Exploration, ended in July, 2008. This effort, in which JINA was an institutional partner, has already produced the largest sample of medium-resolution stellar spectra yet obtained. These data are revolutionizing our understanding of the nature of the s...
متن کاملCosmological Origin of the Lowest Metallicity Halo Stars
We explore the predictions of the standard hierarchical clustering scenario of galaxy formation, regarding the numbers and metallicities of PopIII stars likely to be found within our Galaxy today. By PopIII we shall be referring to stars formed at large redshift (z > 4), with low metallicities ([Z/Z⊙] < −2.5) and in small systems (total mass < ∼ 2×10 8M⊙) that are extremely sensitive to stellar...
متن کاملDiffusive convective overshoot in core He - burning intermediate mass stars . I : the LMC metallicity
We present detailed evolutionary calculations focused on the evolution of intermediate mass stars with 3M ⊙ ≤ M ≤ 9M ⊙ of metallicity typical of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), i.e. Z = 0.008. We compare carefully the models calculated by adopting a diffusive scheme for chemical mixing, in which nuclear burning and mixing are self-consistently coupled, while the eddy velocities beyond the for...
متن کاملThe Lowest Metallicity Planet Host Star ∗
We report the detection of two planetary mass companions to the solar-type star HD155358. The two planets have orbital periods of 195.0 and 530.3 days, with eccentricities of 0.11 and 0.18. The minimum masses for these planets are 0.89 and 0.50 MJ respectively. The orbits are close enough to each other, and the planets are sufficiently massive, that the planets are gravitationally interacting w...
متن کاملPulsating AGB stars in the LMC
I give a brief review and interpretation of the evolution, mass loss and pulsation of AGB stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud. 1. The Magellanic Clouds in an astro-physical context Our view of the place of mankind in the Universe changed dramatically with the recognition by Abbe (1967) that the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC & SMC) are in fact nearby galaxies composed of stars and nebul...
