Chemical evolution of the Galactic bulge as traced by microlensed dwarf and subgiant stars. II. Ages, metallicities, detailed elemental abundances, and connections to the Galactic thick disc
T. Bensby, S. Feltzing, J. A. Johnson +13
The Bulge is the least understood major stellar population of the Milky Way. Most of what we know about the formation and evolution of the Bulge comes from bright giant stars. The…
Unprecedented accurate abundances: signatures of other Earths?
J. Melendez, M. Asplund, B. Gustafsson +2
For more than 140 years the chemical composition of our Sun has been considered typical of solar-type stars. Our highly differential elemental abundance analysis of unprecedented a…
The peculiar solar composition and its possible relation to planet formation
Jorge Melendez, Martin Asplund, Bengt Gustafsson +1
We have conducted a differential elemental abundance analysis of unprecedented accuracy (0.01 dex) of the Sun relative to 11 solar twins from the Hipparcos catalogue and 10 solar a…
The chemical composition of the Sun
Martin Asplund, Nicolas Grevesse, A. Jacques Sauval +1
The solar chemical composition is an important ingredient in our understanding of the formation, structure and evolution of both the Sun and our solar system. Furthermore, it is an…
Abundance Analysis of the Halo Giant HD122563 with Three-Dimensional Model Stellar Atmospheres
R. Collet, A. Nordlund, M. Asplund +2
We present a preliminary local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) abundance analysis of the template halo red giant HD122563 based on a realistic, three-dimensional (3D), time-depende…
Granulation across the HR diagram
I. Ramirez, C. Allende Prieto, D. L. Lambert +2
We have obtained ultra-high quality spectra (R=180,000; S/N>300) with unprecedented wavelength coverage (4400 to 7400 A) for a number of stars covering most of the HR diagram in or…
