Nucleosynthetic signatures of the first stars

Anna Frebel, Wako Aoki, Norbert Christlieb +16

The chemically most primitive stars provide constraints on the nature of the first stellar objects that formed in the Universe; elements other than hydrogen, helium and traces of l…

Where Are We Now, and Where Are We Going? Perspectives on Cosmic Abundances

Timothy C. Beers

I was asked at the end of this conference to provide a few comments on the present status of the field of cosmic abundances, which I summarize (and extend upon) in this contributio…

First stars VI - Abundances of C, N, O, Li, and mixing in extremely metal-poor giants. Galactic evolution of the light elements

M. Spite, R. Cayrel, B. Plez +11

We have investigated the poorly-understood origin of nitrogen in the early Galaxy by determining N abundances in 35 extremely metal-poor halo giants (22 stars have [Fe/H]<-3.0) usi…

Early Star Formation and Chemical Evolution in Proto-Galactic Clouds

Lamya Saleh, Timothy C. Beers, Grant J. Mathews

We present numerical simulations to describe the evolution of pre-Galactic clouds in a model which is motivated by cold dark matter simulations of hierarchical galaxy formation. We…

New Resources to Explore the Old Galaxy: Mining the SDSS

C. Allende Prieto, T. C. Beers, Y. Li +3

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is collecting photometry and intermediate resolution spectra for ~ 10**5 stars in the thick-disk and stellar halo of the Milky Way. This massive…

Elemental abundances of metal poor carbon rich lead star: CS29497-030

T. Sivarani, P. Bonifacio, P. Molaro +12

We present here the abundance analysis of a metal poor carbon rich lead star, CS29497-030. High resolution and high signal to noise spectra were obtained using the UVES spectrograp…
