Meridional Circulation II: A Unified Mechanism for Lithium Depletion in Solar Analogs and the Lithium Dip in Mid-F Cluster Stars

Xuefeng Li, Jianrong Shi, Yan Li +2

The behavior of lithium (Li) in Population I main sequence stars challenges standard stellar theory. Two phenomena stand out: the solar Li problem which extends to Li depletion in…

Meridional Circulation. I. A Formation Channel for Lithium-rich and Super Lithium-rich Red Clump Stars

Xue-Feng Li, Jian-Rong Shi, Yan Li +2

Current observations indicate that stars with higher rotation rates appear to maintain more surface lithium, and the majority of lithium-rich giants are indeed red clump stars. Hen…

Convective Mixing: The Formation Channel of Li-rich Giants

Xuefeng Li, Jianrong Shi, Yan Li +2

Increasing observed data indicate that part of giants has abnormally high lithium (Li) inside their surface, and their proportion is around 1%. Instead of pursuing the feasible mec…

Lithium Evolution of Giant Stars Observed by LAMOST and Kepler

Jinghua Zhang, Jian-Rong Shi, Hong-Liang Yan +8

Mapping lithium evolution for evolved stars will provide restrictions and constraints on the fundamental stellar interior physical processes, which further shed light on our unders…

Most Lithium-rich Low-mass Evolved Stars Revealed as Red Clump stars by Asteroseismology and Spectroscopy

Hong-Liang Yan, Yu-Tao Zhou, Xianfei Zhang +19

Lithium has confused scientists for decades at almost each scale of the universe. Lithium-rich giants are peculiar stars with lithium abundances over model prediction. A large frac…
