New Rare Earth Element Abundance Distributions for the Sun and Five R-Process-Rich Very Metal-Poor Stars
(2009-05)
We have derived new abundances of the rare earth elements Pr, Dy, Tm, Yb, and Lu for the solar photosphere and for five very metal-poor, neutron-capture r-process-rich giant stars. The photospheric values for all five ...
Improved Laboratory Transition Probabilities for Ce II, Application to the Cerium Abundances of the Sun and Five R-Process-Rich, Metal-Poor Stars, and Rare Earth Lab Data Summary
(2009-05)
Recent radiative lifetime measurements accurate to +/- 5% using laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) on 43 even-parity and 15 odd-parity levels of Ce II have been combined with new branching fractions measured using a Fourier ...
