Li-rich Giants Identified from LAMOST DR8 Low-resolution Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
A small fraction of giants possess photospheric lithium (Li) abundance higher than the value predicted by the standard stellar evolution models, and the detailed mechanisms of Li enhancement are complicated and lack a definite conclusion.

Stellar Abundances for the Galactic Archeology (SAGA) Database — Compilation of the Characteristics of Known Extremely Metal-Poor Stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We describe the construction of a database of extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars in the Galaxy. Our database contains detailed elemental abundances, reported equivalent widths, atmospheric parameters, photometry, and binarity status, compiled from papers ...

Stellar model atmospheres with abundance stratification [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2009
Context. Atomic diffusion is believed to be an important physical process in the atmospheres of several types of stars. Stellar atmospheres, including the stratification of the elements due to diffusion, are then needed to properly compare theoretical results to observations for such stars. Aims.

An Adaptive Management Model for Brown Bears in Hokkaido: Based on Total Population and the Number of Nuisance Bears

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Bear management changes management actions according to the horizontal axis of the population size and the vertical axis of the number of nuisance bears. Aiming for the target population size of Ntar, Actions I and II protect the bears, and Action IV reduces the population.

Applications of Abundance Data and Requirements for Cosmochemical Modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Understanding the evolution of the universe from Big Bang to its present state requires an understanding of the evolution of the abundances of the elements and isotopes in galaxies, stars, the interstellar medium, the Sun and the heliosphere, planets and

Inferring stellar compositions [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Stars are not hydrostatic spheres and their atmospheric layers are not in local thermodynamic equilibrium. Inferring stellar surface abundances from such 1D+LTE models is subject to significant biases.

THE IMPACT OF STELLAR ABUNDANCE VARIATIONS ON STELLAR HABITABLE ZONE EVOLUTION [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2012
The high quality spectra required for radial velocity planet searches are well-suited to providing abundances for a wide array of elements in large samples of stars. Abundance ratios of the most common elements relative to Fe are observed to vary by more than a factor of two in planet host candidates. This level of variation has a substantial impact on

Speciation Through the Lens of Population Dynamics: A Theoretical Primer on How Small and Large Populations Diverge

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Population size and dynamics fundamentally shape speciation by influencing genetic drift, founder events, and adaptive potential. Small populations may speciate rapidly due to stronger drift, whereas large populations harbor more genetic diversity, which can alter divergence trajectories. We highlight theoretical models that incorporate population size

Constraining cosmic scatter in the Galactic halo through a differential analysis of metal-poor stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
© ESO 2017.Context. The chemical abundances of metal-poor halo stars are important to understanding key aspects of Galactic formation and evolution. Aims.

Determining Stellar Elemental Abundances from DESI Spectra with the Data-driven Payne

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Stellar abundances for a large number of stars provide key information for the study of Galactic formation history. Large spectroscopic surveys such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) and LAMOST take median-to-low-resolution ( R ≲ 5000 ...
