The -Process Alliance: On J00101735, an Accreted, Chemically Unusual, Metal-poor Star with -process Enhancement

Zoe Hackshaw, Rana Ezzeddine, Shivani P. Shah +11

We present a detailed chemo-dynamical analysis of the chemically peculiar very metal-poor ([Fe/H]) Milky Way (MW) halo star, 2MASS J001017581735387 (hereafter J0…

The -Process Alliance: Actinide Abundances, Variation, and Evolution in Metal-Poor Stars

Shivani P. Shah, Rana Ezzeddine, Erika M. Holmbeck +11

The actinides, including thorium (Th), are the heaviest observable elements synthesized in the universe, holding clues to the extremes of the astrophysical and nuclear conditions o…

Chemical Abundances in the Metal-Poor Globular Cluster ESO 280-SC06: A Formerly Massive, Tidally Disrupted Globular Cluster

Sam A. Usman, Alexander P. Ji, Jandrie Rodriguez +6

We present the first high-resolution abundance study of ESO 280-SC06, one of the least luminous and most metal-poor gravitationally bound Milky Way globular clusters. Using Magella…

The R-Process Alliance: Hunting for gold in the near-UV spectrum of 2MASS J05383296-5904280

Terese T. Hansen, Ian U. Roederer, Shivani P. Shah +10

Context. Over the past few years, the -Process Alliance (RPA) has successfully carried out a search for stars that are highly enhanced in elements produced via the rapid neutron…

The R-Process Alliance: Fifth Data Release from the Search for R-Process-Enhanced Metal-poor Stars in the Galactic Halo with the GTC

Avrajit Bandyopadhyay, Rana Ezzeddine, Carlos Allende Prieto +9

Understanding the abundance pattern of metal-poor stars and the production of heavy elements through various nucleosynthesis processes offers crucial insights into the chemical evo…

The -Process Alliance: Detailed Composition of an -Process Enhanced Star with UV and Optical Spectroscopy

Shivani P. Shah, Rana Ezzeddine, Ian U. Roederer +8

We present a detailed chemical-abundance analysis of a highly -process enhanced (RPE) star, 2MASS J00512646-1053170, using high-resolution spectroscopic observations with $Hubbl…

Spectacular nucleosynthesis from early massive stars

Alexander P. Ji, Sanjana Curtis, Nicholas Storm +39

Stars formed with initial mass over 50 Msun are very rare today, but they are thought to be more common in the early universe. The fates of those early, metal-poor, massive stars a…

HD 4915: A Maunder Minimum Candidate

Shivani P. Shah, Jason T. Wright, Howard Isaacson +2

We study the magnetic activity cycle of HD 4915 using the \ion{Ca}{2} H \& K emission line strengths measured by Keck I/HIRES spectrograph. The star has been observed as a part of…
