Detection of the Second r-Process Peak Element Tellurium in Metal-Poor Stars

Roederer, Ian U.; Lawler, James E.; Cowan, John J.; Beers, Timothy C.; Frebel, Anna; Ivans,, Inese I.; Schatz, Hendrik; Sobeck, Jennifer S.; Sneden, Christopher (2012-03)

Using near-ultraviolet spectra obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope, we detect neutral tellurium in three metal-poor stars enriched by products of r-process nucleosynthesis, ...

New Detections Of Arsenic, Selenium, And Other Heavy Elements In Two Metal-Poor Stars

Roederer, Ian U.; Schatz, Hendrik; Lawler, James E.; Beers, Timothy C.; Cowan, John J.; Frebel, Anna; Ivans, Inese, I.; Sneden, Christopher; Sobeck, Jennifer S. (2014-08)

We use the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope to obtain new high-quality spectra covering the 1900 <= lambda <= 2360 angstrom wavelength range for two metal-poor stars, HD 108317 and ...
