Models for extremely metal-poor halo stars
A. Weiss, H. Schlattl, M. Salaris +2
Two alternative scenarios concerning the origin and evolution of extremely metal-poor halo stars are investigated. The first one assumes that the stars have been completely metal-f…
Quantum corrections to microscopic diffusion constants
H. Schlattl, M. Salaris
We review the state of the art regarding the computation of the resistance coefficients in conditions typical of the stellar plasma, and compare the various results studying their…
First full evolutionary computation of the He-flash induced mixing in Population II stars
S. Cassisi, H. Schlattl, M. Salaris +1
The core helium-flash in low-mass stars with extreme mass loss occurs after the tip of the RGB, when the H-rich envelope is very thin. The low efficiency of the H-shell source enab…
Resolving the 47 Tucanae Distance Problem
Susan M. Percival, Maurizio Salaris, Francois van Wyk +1
Using a sample of 43 suitable local subdwarfs with newly acquired BVI photometry, we apply our main sequence fitting method to the metal rich Globular Cluster 47 Tucanae. Fitting i…
The surface carbon and nitrogen abundances in models of ultra metal-poor stars
H. Schlattl, M. Salaris, S. Cassisi +1
We investigate whether the observed high number of carbon- and nitrogen-enhanced extremely metal-poor stars could be explained by peculiar evolutionary properties during the core H…
Constraints on 12C(alpha,gamma)16O from White Dwarf Seismology
T. S. Metcalfe, M. Salaris, D. E. Winget
For many years, astronomers have promised that the study of pulsating white dwarfs would ultimately lead to useful information about the physics of matter under extreme conditions…
