The Missing Link: Testing Galactic Chemical Evolution Models with the First Multi-isotopic Abundances in Solar Twin Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the first isotopic abundances of both ^13 CO and C ^18 O in solar twin stars and test the results against several galactic chemical evolution (GCE) models with different nucleosynthesis prescriptions.

Multiple Channels for Nitrogen Pollution by Metal-enriched Supermassive Stars and Implications for GN-z11

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
GN-z11 is an unusually luminous high-redshift galaxy that was recently observed to have strong nitrogen lines while at the same time lacking traditional signatures of active galactic nucleus activity.

Low Mass Stars or Intermediate Mass Stars? The Stellar Origin of Presolar Oxide Grains Revealed by Their Isotopic Composition

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Among presolar grains, oxide ones are made of oxygen, aluminum, and a small fraction of magnesium, produced by the 26Al decay. The largest part of presolar oxide grains belong to the so-called group 1 and 2, which have been suggested to form in Red Giant

Isotopic Composition of Solar Wind Calcium: First in Situ Measurement by CELIAS/MTOF on Board SOHO [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We present first results on the Ca isotopic abundances derived from the high resolution Mass Time-of-Flight (MTOF) spectrometer of the charge, element, and isotope analysis system (CELIAS) experiment on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO).

The cosmic-ray contribution to galactic abundances of the light elements: Interpretation of GCR LiBeB abundance measurements from ACE/CRIS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Inelastic collisions between the galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) and the interstellar medium (ISM) are responsible for producing essentially all of the light elements Li, Be, and B (LiBeB) observed in the cosmic rays.

Cold Deuterium Fractionation in the Nearest Planet-forming Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Deuterium fractionation provides a window into the thermal history of volatiles in the solar system and protoplanetary disks. While evidence of active molecular deuteration has been observed toward a handful of disks, it remains unclear whether this ...

Cno Abundances Of Hydrogen-Deficient Carbon And R Coronae Borealis Stars: A View Of The Nucleosynthesis In A White Dwarf Merger [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present high-resolution (R similar to 50,000) observations of near-IR transitions of CO and CN of the five known hydrogen-deficient carbon (HdC) stars and four R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars.

Sm and Gd Isotopic Shifts in Eucrites and Implications for Their Cosmic-Ray Exposure History

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The isotopic compositions of Sm and Gd in eight eucrites—five from a desert, Dar al Gani (DaG) 380, DaG 391, DaG 411, DaG 443, and DaG 480, and three from nondesert areas, Juvinas, Millibillillie, and Stannern—were determined to understand the cosmic-ray

Models of red giants in the CoRoT asteroseismology fields combining asteroseismic and spectroscopic constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Context. The availability of asteroseismic constraints for a large sample of red giant stars from the CoRoT and Kepler missions paves the way for various statistical studies of the seismic properties of stellar populations. Aims.

Oxygen isotopic ratios in cool R Coronae Borealis stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We investigate the relationship between R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars and hydrogen-deficient carbon (HdC) stars by measuring precise 16O/18O ratios for five cool RCB stars.
