  2. 1. Solar Type Stars as Calibrators : A Photometric and Spectroscopic Study on the Atmospheric Properties of Late-type Stars

    Author : Anna Önehag; Ulrike Heiter; Andreas Korn; Bengt Gustafsson; Frank Grundahl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stars: atmospheres; stars: late-type; techniques: photometric; stars: abundances; techniques: spectroscopic; Astronomy; Astronomi;

    Abstract : Detailed knowledge of solar-type stars is essential in the understanding of the evolutionary past, presence and future of the Sun as well as the formation of its planetary system. Moreover, solar-type stars are of key significance for the study of the evolution of the Galaxy. The ages of solar-type stars map the full galactic evolution. READ MORE

  4. 2. Interacting Giants and Compact Stars

    Author : Alexey Bobrick; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stars Binaries: General; stars : neutron; stars : subdwarfs; stars : supergiants; hydrodynamics; nuclear reactions; nucleosynthesis; abundances; stars Binaries: General; stars : neutron; stars : subdwarfs; stars : supergiants; hydrodynamics; nuclear reactions; nucleosynthesis; abundances; Fysicumarkivet A:2021:Bobrick;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on four papers dealing with various aspects of interactions in binary stars. Interactions between stars occur at nearly all stages of their evolution and can take many forms. READ MORE

  5. 3. Molecules and Dust around AGB stars : Mass-loss rates and molecular abundances

    Author : Sofia Ramstedt; Hans Olofsson; Fredrik Schöier; José Cernicharo; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; AGB stars; mass-loss; circumstellar abundances; Formation and development of stars; Stjärnors bildning och utveckling; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Abstract : All stars with a stellar mass of about 0.8–8 MSun will end their lives as asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars. Through their extensive mass loss the AGB stars constitutes an important source of nuclear processed material. READ MORE

  6. 4. Galactic archaeology with metal-poor stars

    Author : Thomas Nordlander; Andreas J. Korn; Karin Lind; Ulrike Heiter; David L. Lambert; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stars: abundances; radiative transfer; stars: Population II; stars: Population III;

    Abstract : The chemical fingerprints of old, metal-poor stars can be used to unravel the events of the newborn Universe and help us understand the properties of the first stars and star clusters. The study of nearby stars to infer properties in the distant past is often referred to as Galactic archaeology. READ MORE

  7. 5. Dwarf and Subgiant Stars as Probes of Galactic Chemical and Dynamical Evolution

    Author : Patrik Thorén; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Astronomy; Abundances; atomic data; Galactic evolution; late-type stars; main sequence stars; subgiants; Pop II; Pop I; stellar evolution; Astronomi; Astronomy and astrophysics; Astronomi och astrofysik; astronomi; Astronomy;

    Abstract : Stellar chemical abundances provide astronomers with vital information about the production of chemical elements. Some stars preserve the composition of the environment in which they were born on their surfaces. READ MORE
