Detection of Fluorine in the Halo Planetary Nebula BoBn 1: Evidence For a Binary Progenitor Star

open access: yes, 2008
We have found the fluorine lines [F IV] 3996.92A,4059.90A in the extremely metal-poor ([Ar/H] = -2.10+/-0.21) halo planetary nebula (PN) BoBn 1 in high-dispersion spectra from the 8.2-m VLT/UVES archive.

Influence of Cooling Rate on Primary Silicon Size in Hypereutectic Al–Si Alloy Fabricated by Laser Powder Bed Fusion

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Al–Si alloys are particularly in demand for automotive and electronic applications, thanks to their excellent wear and thermal properties. Nevertheless, when processed by conventional methods with low cooling rates, the coarse primary Si phases are responsible for increasing brittleness and inducing crack propagation.

The Extremely Metal-rich Knot of Stars at the Heart of the Galaxy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We show with Gaia XP spectroscopy that extremely metal-rich (EMR) stars in the Milky Way ([M/H] _XP ≳ 0.5) are largely confined to a tight “knot” at the center of the Galaxy. This EMR knot is round in projection, has a fairly abrupt edge near R _GC,proj ∼

Vibrational Instability of Metal-Poor Low-Mass Main-Sequence Stars

open access: yes, 2012
We find that low-degree low-order g-modes become unstable in metal-poor low-mass stars due to the $\varepsilon$-mechanism of the pp-chain. Since the outer convection zone of these stars is limited only to the very outer layers, the uncertainty in the ...

High-Resolution Spectroscopic Study of Extremely Metal-Poor Star Candidates from the SkyMapper Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The SkyMapper Southern Sky Survey is carrying out a search for the most metal-poor stars in the Galaxy. It identifies candidates by way of its unique filter set that allows for estimation of stellar atmospheric parameters.

Non‐Destructive and Mechanical Characterization of the Bond Quality of Co‐Extruded Titanium‐Aluminum Profiles

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the bond quality of co‐extruded aluminum–titanium hybrid profiles, focusing on the lateral angular co‐extrusion (LACE) process. It examines how heat treatments (HT) affect intermetallic phase formation, bond strength, and material properties.

Formation of WNL Stars in the MW and LMC Based on the k − ω Model

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We adopt a set of second-order differential equations ( k − ω model) to handle core convective overshooting in massive stars, simulate the evolution of nitrogen sequence Wolf–Rayet (WNL) stars with different metallicities and initial masses, both ...

S-process in low-mass extremely metal-poor stars

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
We present post-processing s-process calculations for the core He-flash of a 1M☉ star with and Z = 10−8. Our model shows neutron densities larger than 1014cm−3, resulting in the production of s-process elements. The model reproduces the C, O, Sr, and Ba

Iron-peak Element Abundances in Warm Very Metal-poor Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We have derived new detailed abundances of Mg, Ca, and the Fe-group elements Sc through Zn ( Z = 21−30) for 37 main-sequence turnoff very metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] ≲−2.1).

Comparative Wear and Friction Analysis of Sliding Surface Materials for Hydrostatic Bearing under Oil Supply Failure Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrostatic bearings excel in high‐precision applications, but their performance hinges on a continuous external supply. This study evaluates various material combinations for sliding surfaces to mitigate damage during supply failures or misalignment and to discover the most effective materials identified for enhancing the reliability and efficiency of
