Constraining the Delay Time Distribution of the r- and s-Process from Stellar Ages at Solar Metallicity

Meng Zhang, Hans-Walter Rix

We present a new approach to constraining the delay time distribution (DTD) governing r- and s-process element production. Rather than using metallicity as a proxy for time, we wor…

Testing Chemical Tagging with LAMOST: Intrinsic Abundance Dispersion of Subgiant Stars in the Galactic Disk

Wu Yaqian, Xiang Maosheng, Zhao Gang +4

The scatter in elemental abundances among stars of similar age and metallicity reflects chemical inhomogeneity in their birth environments, making abundance scatter a key observabl…

SPURS: Evidence for Clumpy Neutral Envelopes and Ionized IGM Surrounding Little Red Dots in Abell 2744 from Ultra-Deep Rest-UV Spectroscopy

Mengtao Tang, Daniel P. Stark, Charlotte A. Mason +14

Rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) spectra of Little Red Dots (LRDs) often show Ly emission. Along with broad Balmer emission, LRDs are expected to produce broad Ly emission. Howeve…

Metallicities of 20 Million Giant Stars Based on Gaia XP spectra

Lin Yang, Haibo Yuan, Bowen Huang +8

We design an uncertainty-aware cost-sensitive neural network (UA-CSNet) to estimate metallicities from dereddened and corrected Gaia BP/RP (XP) spectra for giant stars. This method…

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

Meng Zhang, Maosheng Xiang, Yuan-Sen Ting +8

Stellar abundances for a large number of stars are key information for the study of Galactic formation history. Large spectroscopic surveys such as DESI and LAMOST take median-to-l…

Ba-enhanced dwarf and subgiant stars in the LAMOST Galactic surveys

Meng Zhang, Maosheng Xiang, Hua-Wei Zhang +3

Ba-enhanced stars are interesting probes of stellar astrophysics and Galactic formation history. In this work, we investigate the chemistry and kinematics for a large sample of Ba-…

Most "young" -rich stars have high masses but are actually old

Meng Zhang, Mao-Sheng Xiang, Hua-Wei Zhang +8

Recent observations have revealed a population of -element abundances enhanced giant stars with unexpected high masses (1 ) from asteroseismic analysis and spe…

Mapping the Galactic disk with the LAMOST and Red clump sample: V: On the origin of the "young" [/Fe]-enhanced stars

Weixiang Sun, Yang Huang, Haifeng Wang +8

Using a sample of nearly 140,000 primary red clump stars selected from the LAMOST and surveys, we have identified a large sample of "young" [/Fe]-enhanced stars with stel…
