Abundance analysis of three new extremely metal-poor stars, including one CEMP-s star

P. François, T. Suda, S. Wanajo +5

We report a detailed abundance analysis of three extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars thanks to spectra obtained with the high-dispersion spectrograph (HDS) at the Subaru telescope. Th…

A first-principles binary neutron star merger model of GW170817, GRB170817A, and AT2017gfo

Kenta Kiuchi, Sho Fujibayashi, Kota Hayashi +6

The multimessenger observation of the binary neutron star merger event GW170817, associated with its electromagnetic counterparts GRB170817A and AT2017gfo, marked a milestone in as…

Non-LTE Ionization Modeling for Helium and Strontium in Neutron Star Merger Ejecta

Koya Chiba, Masaomi Tanaka, Shinya Wanajo +3

The material ejected from a binary neutron star merger produces "kilonova," a radioactively powered emission at ultraviolet, optical, and infrared wavelengths. The early-phase spec…

Lanthanide Impact on the Infra-Red Spectra of Nebular Phase Kilonovae

Quentin Pognan, Kyohei Kawaguchi, Shinya Wanajo +3

Nebular phase kilonovae (KNe) have significant infra-red (IR) emission thought to be mostly forbidden emission lines from rapid neutron capture (r-process) species in neutron star…

Potassium abundances in extremely metal poor stars: Implications for nucleosynthesis in the final stages of massive star evolution

M. N. Ishigaki, N. Tominaga, W. Aoki +5

We present a potassium (K) abundance analysis in extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars based on high-resolution () spectra obtained with the High Dispersion Spectrograph on…

Detailed Chemical Abundance Analysis of Metal-Poor Turn-Off Stars: One with [Fe/H] < -4 and Three with [Fe/H] < -3

Takuma Suda, Patrick Francois, Shinya Wanajo +3

We present the analysis of four new extremely metal poor turn-off stars thanks to high-resolution spectra obtained with the Subaru/HDS spectrograph. We determined the abundances an…
