STELLAR ABUNDANCES IN THE SOLAR NEIGHBORHOOD: THE HYPATIA CATALOG [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We compile spectroscopic abundance data from 84 literature sources for 50 elements across 3058 stars in the solar neighborhood, within 150 pc of the Sun, to produce the Hypatia Catalog.

Differential stellar population models: how to reliably measure [Fe/H] and [alpha/Fe] in galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present differential stellar population models, which allow improved determinations of the ages, iron and alpha-element abundances of old stellar populations from spectral fitting.

Stellar abundances and presolar grains trace the nucleosynthetic origin of molybdenum and ruthenium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This work presents a large consistent study of molybdenum (Mo) and ruthenium (Ru) abundances in the Milky Way. These two elements are important nucleosynthetic diagnostics. In our sample of 71 Galactic metal-poor field stars, we detect Ru and/or Mo in 52

Planetary nebulae abundances and stellar evolution II [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Context: In recent years mid- and far infrared spectra of planetary nebulae have been analysed and lead to more accurate abundances. It may be expected that these better abundances lead to a better understanding of the evolution of these objects.

Prospects for Measuring Abundances of >20 Elements with Low-resolution Stellar Spectra [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding the evolution of the Milky Way calls for the precise abundance determination of many elements in many stars. A common perception is that deriving more than a few elemental abundances ([Fe/H], [α/Fe], perhaps [C/H], [N/H]) requires medium-to-

Stellar photospheric abundances as a probe of discs and planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Protoplanetary disks, debris disks, and disrupted or evaporating planets can all feed accretion onto stars. The photospheric abundances of such stars may then reveal the composition of the accreted material.

Stellar Iron Abundances at the Galactic Center [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We present measurements of [Fe/H] for six M supergiant stars and three giant stars within 0.5 pc of the Galactic Center (GC) and one M supergiant star within 30 pc of the GC. The results are based on high-resolution (lambda / Delta lambda =40,000) K-band

Abundances in Stellar Populations [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1976
Stellar abundances are reviewed with emphasis on large-scale effects which may yield clues to galactic structure and evolution. Spectroscopic and indirect photoelectric abundance criteria are discussed, and utilized.The abundance statistics of nearby galactic disk stars, dominated by M dwarfs, but observed at spectral types F and GV and K III, suggest ...

Nitrogen Production in Starburst Galaxies Detected by GALEX [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We investigate the production of nitrogen in star-forming galaxies with ultraviolet (UV) radiation detected by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer Satellite (GALEX).

TRACING THE EVOLUTION OF HIGH-REDSHIFT GALAXIES USING STELLAR ABUNDANCES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper presents the first results from a model for chemical evolution that can be applied to N-body cosmological simulations and quantitatively compared to measured stellar abundances from large astronomical surveys. This model convolves the chemical
