alpha-element enhanced opacity tables and low-mass metal-rich stellar models
A. Weiss, M. Salaris, J. W. Ferguson +1
We investigate the influence of both a new generation of low-temperature opacities and of various amounts of alpha-element enhancements on stellar evolution models. New stellar mod…

On the primordial scenario for abundance variations within globular clusters. The isochrone test
Maurizio Salaris, Achim Weiss, Jason W. Ferguson +1
Self-enrichment processes occurring in the early stages of a globular cluster lifetime are generally invoked to explain the observed CNONaMgAl abundance anticorrelations within ind…

From First Stars to the Spite Plateau: a Possible Reconciliation of Halo Stars Observations with Predictions from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis
L. Piau, T. C. Beers, D. S. Balsara +3
Since the pioneering observations of Spite & Spite in 1982, the constant lithium abundance of metal-poor ([Fe/H]<-1.3) halo stars near the turnoff has been attributed a cosmologica…
