Nucleosynthesis in Massive Population II Stars [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1978 According to the conventional wisdom, the first stars formed in our Galaxy, including the massive ones responsible for most heavy element synthesis, must have had metal abundances much lower than solar. They may also have had somewhat lower helium abundances, corresponding to an enrichment ΔY/ΔZ = 2.7 ± 1.0 over the history of the Galaxy, a larger ...

Wide binary stars in the Galactic field : a statistical approach [PDF]
, 2010 This thesis focuses on the statistical properties of wide binary (WB) star systems in the Galactic field. With projected separations larger than 200 AU and, consequently, having very low binding energies, WB are sensitive probes of the Galactic ...

Machine Learning Detects Multiplicity of the First Stars in Stellar Archaeology Data
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 In unveiling the nature of the first stars, the main astronomical clue is the elemental compositions of the second generation of stars, observed as extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars, in the Milky Way.

Modified gravity in the interior of population II stars [PDF]
Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2021 Abstract We study the effects of a beyond-Horndeski theory of modified gravity in the interior of a population II star. We consider a simple phenomenological model of a 1.1M ☉ star that has left the main sequence, has a thin Hydrogen burning shell with a partially degenerate isothermal core, surrounded by a radiative ...

Radial-velocity measurements of subdwarf B stars [PDF]
, 2011 Subdwarf B (sdB) stars are hot, subluminous stars which are thought to be core-helium burning with thin hydrogen envelopes. The mechanism by which these stars lose their envelopes has been controversial, but it has been argued that binary star ...

The Impact of Patchy Reionization on Ultrafaint Dwarf Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We investigate how patchy reionization affects the star formation history (SFH) and stellar metallicity of ultrafaint dwarf galaxies (UFDs). Patchy reionization refers to varying ultraviolet background strengths depending on a galaxy’s environment ...

[Fe/H]Ratios in Population II Stars [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1991 Abundances of Population II stars of the field and globular cluster systems are reviewed. Emphasis is placed on [Fe/H] ratios determined from analyses of moderate- and high-resolution spectroscopic data. The status of analyses of metal-deficient stars is examined from the viewpoint of number of analyses and number of stars, overall distribution of the [
