Hubble Space Telescope Near-Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of Bright CEMP-s Stars
Vinicius M. Placco, Timothy C. Beers, Inese I. Ivans +14
We present an elemental-abundance analysis, in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) spectral range, for the bright carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars HD196944 (V = 8.40, [Fe/H] = -2.41)…
Pre-explosion companion stars in Type Iax supernovae
Zheng-Wei Liu, Richard J. Stancliffe, Carlo Abate +1
Type Iax supernovae (SNe Iax) are proposed as one new sub-class of SNe Ia since they present observational properties that are sufficiently distinct from the bulk of SNe Ia. SNe Ia…
Modelling the observed properties of carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars using binary population synthesis
C. Abate, O. R. Pols, R. J. Stancliffe +4
The stellar population in the Galactic halo is characterised by a large fraction of CEMP stars. Most CEMP stars are enriched in -elements (CEMP- stars), and some of these are…
Carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars: a window on AGB nucleosynthesis and binary evolution. II. Statistical analysis of a sample of 67 CEMP- stars
C. Abate, O. R. Pols, R. G. Izzard +1
Many observed CEMP stars are found in binary systems and show enhanced abundances of -elements. The origin of the chemical abundances of these CEMP- stars is believed to be a…
Carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars: a window on AGB nucleosynthesis and binary evolution. I. Detailed analysis of 15 binary stars with known orbital periods
C. Abate, O. R. Pols, A. I. Karakas +1
AGB stars are responsible for producing a variety of elements, including carbon, nitrogen, and the heavy elements produced in the slow neutron-capture process (-elements). There…
