The s- and r- components of the proto-solar composition
N. Prantzos, S. Cristallo, C. Abia
We present a brief overview of the various methods proposed to derive the s- and r-components of the proto-solar chemical composition and we discuss some recent developments in the…
Lithium as a probe of stellar and galactic physics
C. Charbonnel, N. Prantzos
Lithium plays a unique role in astrophysics, as it is a powerful diagnostic for the physics and evolution of low-mass stars, Galactic archaeology, and cosmology. We review the Li o…
Recent star formation episodes in the Galaxy: impact on its chemical properties and the evolution of its abundance gradient
Tianxiang Chen, Nikos Prantzos
We investigate the chemical evolution of the Milky Way disc exploring various schemes of recent (last several Gyr) star formation episodes, as reported in recent observational work…
Evolution of lithium in the disc of the Galaxy and the role of novae
Sviatoslav Borisov, Nikos Prantzos, Corinne Charbonnel
Lithium plays a crucial role in probing stellar physics and stellar and primordial nucleosynthesis, as well as the chemical evolution of our Galaxy. Stars are considered to be the…
Abundances of planetary nebulae and evolved stars: Iron and sulfur depletion, and carbon and nitrogen enrichment, in low- and intermediate-mass stellar populations in the Milky Way
Letizia Stanghellini, Verne V. Smith, Katia Cunha +1
We explore the elemental abundances in Galactic planetary nebulae (PNe) compared with those of their stellar progenitors (Red Giant Branch and Asymptotic Giant Branch, RGB and AGB,…
A coherent view of Li depletion and angular momentum transport to explain the Li plateau -- from Population II to Population I stars
Sviatoslav Borisov, Corinne Charbonnel, Nikos Prantzos +2
Unraveling the cosmological Li problem - the discrepancy between Big Bang nucleosynthesis predictions and observed values in the Spite plateau - requires a comprehensive exploratio…
