OBSERVATIONAL CONSTRAINTS ON FIRST-STAR NUCLEOSYNTHESIS. I. EVIDENCE FOR MULTIPLE PROGENITORS OF CEMP-NO STARS [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2016
We investigate anew the distribution of absolute carbon abundance, A(C) = log ∊(C), for carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars in the halo of the Milky Way, based on high-resolution spectroscopic data for a total sample of 305 CEMP stars.

Observational Evidence Points at AGB Stars as Possible Progenitors of CEMP-s and CEMP-r/s Stars* [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2021
The origin of enhanced abundance of heavy elements observed in the surface chemical composition of carbonenhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars still remains poorly understood.

Spectroscopic study of CEMP-(s & r/s) stars

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2021
Context. The origin of the enhanced abundances of both s- and r-process elements observed in a subclass of carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars, denoted CEMP-r/s stars, still remains poorly understood.

Understanding the origin of CEMP – no stars through ultra-faint dwarfs

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2023
ABSTRACT The origin of Carbon Enhanced Metal-Poor (CEMP-no) stars with low abundances of neutron-capture elements is still unclear. These stars are ubiquitous, found primarily in the Milky Way halo and ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs).

Chemodynamical study of two CEMP-no stars from the Hamburg/ESO Survey [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
The Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor (CEMP) stars with no enhancement of neutron-capture elements, the so-called CEMP-no stars are believed to be the direct descendants of first-generation stars and provide a unique opportunity to probe the early Galactic ...

Binarity in CEMP-no stars

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2017
AbstractWe monitor a sample of CEMP-no stars using the CFHT and SALT telescopes to gain additional knowledge about the possible binarity of these stars. This information is valuable for each individual star, and additionally it could be used to further constrain their binary fraction.

The Evolutionary State of CEMP Stars

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2018
AbstractThe standard scenario for the production of carbon-enhanced extremely metal-poor (CEMP) stars requires a more massive binary companion, which has evolved through the AGB stage and transferred carbon-rich material to the surface of the surviving, likewise extremely metal-poor (EMP) star.

s-Process in Low Metallicity Stars: CEMP-s and CEMP-s+r

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
A sample of 74 very metal‐poor, C‐ and s‐rich rich stars were collected from the literature. We give here a summary of the results obtained by comparing spectroscopic abundances of CEMP‐s stars and AGB theoretical models, using different 13C‐pocket efficiencies, initial masses and initial r‐enrichments.

Characteristics, Classification and Challenges in Searching for CEMP Stars

Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics
Abstract The study of carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars is of great significance for understanding the chemical evolution of the early universe and stellar formation. CEMP stars are characterized by carbon overabundance and are classified into several subclasses based on the abundance patterns of neutron-capture elements, including
