Discovery of a weak magnetic field in the photosphere of the single giant Pollux

M. Auriere, G. A. Wade, R. Konstantinova-Antova +11

Aims: We observe the nearby, weakly-active single giant, Pollux, in order to directly study and infer the nature of its magnetic field. Methods: We used the new generation spectrop…

Spectroscopic binaries among Hipparcos M giants III. The eccentricity-period diagram and mass-transfer signatures

A. Jorissen, A. Frankowski, B. Famaey +1

This paper is the third one in a series devoted to studying the properties of binaries involving M giants. We use a new set of orbits to construct the first (e-logP) diagram of an…

Spectroscopic binaries among Hipparcos M giants II. Binary frequency

A. Frankowski, B. Famaey, S. Van Eck +3

This paper is the second one in a series devoted to the study of properties of binaries involving M giants. The binary frequency of field M giants is derived and compared with the…

Spectroscopic binaries among Hipparcos M giants I. Data, orbits, and intrinsic variations

B. Famaey, D. Pourbaix, A. Frankowski +4

This paper is a follow-up of the vast effort to collect radial velocity data for stars belonging to the Hipparcos survey. We aim at extending the orbital data available for binarie…

A holistic approach to carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars

T. Masseron, J. A. Johnson, B. Plez +4

By considering the various CEMP subclasses separately, we try to derive, from the specific signatures imprinted on the abundances, parameters (such as metallicity, mass, temperatur…
