Ages of FGK stars considering C and O abundances

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Precise stellar ages of stars are necessary to study the evolution of the Milky Way.

Description

The age determination is significantly affected by C and O abundances of stars due to their contribution to the overall metallicity and opacity. On the basis of C and O abundances derived from high-resolution observations, we determine the ages of 148 FGK-type dwarfs in the solar neighborhood by considering C and O enhancements individually.

Our results show that using C and O enhancements individually could affect the age determination of the high-{alpha} population, especially for stars with [O/{alpha}]>0.2dex, making them about 1Gyr younger compared to the results using traditional {alpha}-enhanced models. This results in a steeper slope in the age-[{alpha}/Fe] relation for the high-{alpha} population (changes from 0.0339+/-0.0075 to 0.0436+/-0.0086), indicating a higher formation rate.

We find no tight relation between age and [{alpha}/Fe] or [O/Fe] in the high-{alpha} populations. The distribution of space velocity for young {alpha}-rich stars shows that they are more likely characterized to the low-{alpha} populations.
