Finding the UV-Visible Path Forward: Proceedings of the Community Workshop to Plan the Future of UV/Visible Space Astrophysics
Paul A. Scowen, Todd Tripp, Matt Beasley +30
We present the science cases and technological discussions that came from the workshop entitled "Finding the UV-Visible Path Forward" held at NASA GSFC June 25-26, 2015. The materi…
The Origin of the Heaviest Metals in Most Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxies
Ian U. Roederer
The heaviest metals found in stars in most ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxies in the Milky Way halo are generally underabundant by an order of magnitude or more when compared with st…
Neutron-Capture Element Abundances in Magellanic Cloud Planetary Nebulae
A. L. Mashburn, N. C. Sterling, S. Madonna +3
We present near-infrared spectra of ten planetary nebulae (PNe) in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC), acquired with the FIRE and GNIRS spectrometers on the 6.5-m…
Observational Constraints on First-Star Nucleosynthesis. I. Evidence for Multiple Progenitors of CEMP-no Stars
Jinmi Yoon, Timothy C. Beers, Vinicius M. Placco +6
We investigate anew the distribution of absolute carbon abundance, (C) (C), for carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars in the halo of the Milky Way, based on high-re…
Detection of Phosphorus, Sulphur, and Zinc in the Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor Star BD+44 493
Ian U. Roederer, Vinicius M. Placco, Timothy C. Beers
The carbon-enhanced metal-poor star BD+44 493 ([Fe/H]=-3.9) has been proposed as a candidate second-generation star enriched by metals from a single Pop III star. We report the fir…
The Diverse Origins of Neutron-Capture Elements in the Metal-Poor Star HD 94028: Possible Detection of Products of i-process Nucleosynthesis
Ian U. Roederer, Amanda I. Karakas, Marco Pignatari +1
We present a detailed analysis of the composition and nucleosynthetic origins of the heavy elements in the metal-poor ([Fe/H]=-1.62+/-0.09) star HD94028. Previous studies revealed…
