Evidence for Enhanced Helium Enrichment from Asteroseismology

Miqaela K. Weller, Marc H. Pinsonneault, Jennifer A. Johnson +1

The helium abundance of a star has a dramatic effect on luminosity, internal structure, and evolutionary timescales, yet direct helium measurements are unavailable for most stars.…

[C/N] Ages and Extra-Mixing for [Fe/H] <- 0.5: Insights from the LMC and SMC

Yuxi Lu, John D. Roberts, Joshua T. Povick +4

The [C/N]-age relation has become a powerful tool for reconstructing the formation history of the Milky Way (MW), providing the largest age sample for field giant stars. However, a…

Checking It Twice: Using [C/N]-Masses and Asteroseismic Masses as a Diagnostic of Mass Loss and Transfer on the RGB

John D. Roberts, Marc H. Pinsonneault, Jennifer A. Johnson +1

The surface [C/N] of red giants is correlated with birth mass, but not directly impacted by mass loss. Exploiting this, we compare asteroseismic masses of red giants with the same…

Untangling the Sources of Abundance Dispersion in Low-metallicity Stars II: Neutron Capture Elements

Emily J. Griffith, Marissa Blum, David H. Weinberg +4

We present the abundances of 23 elements, including 11 heavy elements (Cu, Zn, Sr, Y, Zr, Ba, La, Ce, Nd, Sm, Eu) for up to 86 metal-poor (-2 < [Fe/H] < -1) subgiants. We use KORG,…

A Data-Driven M Dwarf Model and Detailed Abundances for 17,000 M Dwarfs in SDSS-V

Aida Behmard, Melissa K. Ness, Andrew R. Casey +6

The cool temperatures of M dwarf atmospheres enable complex molecular chemistry, making robust characterization of M dwarf compositions a long-standing challenge. Recent modificati…

Evidence of Truly Young high- Dwarf Stars

Yuxi Lu, Isabel L. Colman, Maryum Sayeed +14

The existence of high- stars with inferred ages < 6 Gyr has been confirmed recently with large spectroscopic and photometric surveys. However, stellar mergers or binary interact…
