The Solar Photospheric Nitrogen Abundance: Determination with 3D and 1D Model Atmospheres
E. Maiorca, E. Caffau, P. Bonifacio +5
We present a new determination of the solar nitrogen abundance making use of 3D hydrodynamical modelling of the solar photosphere, which is more physically motivated than tradition…

Nucleosynthesis of light element isotopes in evolved stars experiencing extended mixing
S. Palmerini, M. Busso, E. Maiorca +1
We present computations of nucleosynthesis in red giants and asymptotic giant branch stars of Population I experiencing extended mixing. The assumed physical cause for mass transpo…

The solar photospheric nitrogen abundance. Analysis of atomic transitions with 3D and 1D model atmospheres
E. Caffau, E. Maiorca, P. Bonifacio +5
CONTEXT: In recent years, the solar chemical abundances have been studied in considerable detail because of discrepant values of solar metallicity inferred from different indicator…
