Heavy elements abundances of metal-poor stars

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

To better characterize the abundance patterns produced by the r-process, we have derived new abundances or upper limits for the heavy elements zinc (Zn, Z=30), yttrium (Y, Z=39), lanthanum (La, Z=57), europium (Eu, Z=63), and lead (Pb, Z=82).

Description

Our sample of 161 metal-poor stars includes new measurements from 88 high-resolution and high signal-to-noise spectra obtained with the Tull Spectrograph on the 2.7m Smith Telescope at the McDonald Observatory, and other abundances are adopted from the literature.

We use models of the s-process in asymptotic giant branch stars to characterize the high Pb/Eu ratios produced in the s-process at low metallicity, and our new observations then allow us to identify a sample of stars with no detectable s-process material.
