Planet engulfment in the chemically anomalous HD 129171/HD 129209 pair

Anne Rathsam, Jorge Meléndez, Rodolfo Smiljanic +2

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Empirical estimates of stellar ages from lithium equivalent widths (EAGLES)

R. D. Jeffries, R. J. Jackson, Nicholas J. Wright +17

We present an empirical model of age-dependent photospheric lithium depletion, calibrated using a large, homogeneously-analysed sample of 6200 stars in 52 open clusters, with ages…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Probing the lithium abundances in old metal-rich dwarf stars in the Solar vicinity

M. L. L. Dantas, G. Guiglion, R. Smiljanic +14

We test a scenario in which radial migration could affect the Li abundance pattern of dwarf stars in the solar neighbourhood. This may confirm that the Li abundance in these stars…
