The Abundances Of Neutron-Capture Species In The Very Metal-Poor Globular Cluster M15: A Uniform Analysis Of Red Giant Branch And Red Horizontal Branch Stars
(2011-06)
The globular cluster M15 is unique in its display of star-to-star variations in the neutron-capture elements. Comprehensive abundance surveys have been previously conducted for handfuls of M15 red giant branch (RGB) and ...
CS 22964-161: A Double-Lined Carbon- And S-Process-Enhanced Metal-Poor Binary Star
(2008-04)
A detailed high-resolution spectroscopic analysis is presented for the carbon-rich low-metallicity Galactic halo object CS 22964-161. We have discovered that CS 22964-161 is a double-lined spectroscopic binary and have ...
Neutron-Capture Nucleosynthesis In The First Stars*
(2014-04)
Recent studies suggest that metal-poor stars enhanced in carbon but containing low levels of neutron-capture elements may have been among the first to incorporate the nucleosynthesis products of the first generation of ...
Characterizing The Chemistry Of The Milky Way Stellar Halo: Detailed Chemical Analysis Of A Metal-Poor Stellar Stream
(2010-03)
We present the results of a detailed abundance analysis of one of the confirmed building blocks of the Milky Way stellar halo, a kinematically coherent metal-poor stellar stream. We have obtained high-resolution and high ...
A Search For Stars Of Very Low Metal Abundance. VI. Detailed Abundances Of 313 Metal-Poor Stars
(2014-06)
We present radial velocities, equivalent widths, model atmosphere parameters, and abundances or upper limits for 53 species of 48 elements derived from high resolution optical spectroscopy of 313 metal-poor stars. A majority ...
