Rotational velocities of the giants in symbiotic stars: III. Evidence of fast rotation in S-type symbiotics
R. K. Zamanov, M. F. Bode, C. H. F. Melo +5
We have measured the projected rotational velocities (vsini) in a number of symbiotic stars and M giants using high resolution spectroscopic observations. On the basis of our measu…
On the nature of Lithium-rich giant stars: constraints from Beryllium abundances
C. H. F. Melo, P. de Laverny, N. C. Santos +4
We have derived beryllium abundances for 7 Li-rich giant (A(Li) > 1.5) stars and 10 other Li-normal giants, with the aim of investigating the origin of the Lithium in the Li-rich g…
A planet-sized transiting star around OGLE-TR-122 - Accurate mass and radius near the Hydrogen-burning limit
F. Pont, C. H. F. Melo, F. Bouchy +4
We report the discovery and characterisation of OGLE-TR-122b, the smallest main-sequence star to date with a direct radius determination. OGLE-TR-122b transits around its solar-typ…
