16. The origin and chemical evolution of iron-peak and neutron-capture elements in the Milky Way disk
Sammanfattning : All the elements heavier than Li are created during stellar evolution. Even if our knowledge of this process is good, many questions still remain. LÄS MER
17. Gravitational lensing as a probe of the first stars and galaxies
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the potential for detection and identification of primordial stars, galaxies, and supernovae at high redshift.Simulations indicate that the first Population III stars should appear in minihalos of mass M = 105-106 Msol at z ≈ 10-30. LÄS MER
18. Astrophysical impacts on habitable planetary systems
Sammanfattning : Finding life on a planet other than the Earth would easily be one of the greatest discoveries of all time, particularly so if it is found outside our Solar System. To do so, we must understand the conditions required for life to emerge and develop. LÄS MER
19. High-resolution radio imaging of galaxy nuclei
Sammanfattning : Star formation and galaxy evolution are intimately linked together. A detailed understanding of the environment where stars form may help us explain the differences we see between galaxies today and at earlier times in the history of the Universe. LÄS MER
20. The cosmic origin of fluorine and sulphur: Infrared spectroscopic studies of red giants
Sammanfattning : Disregarding the small primordial traces of the lightest elements, all metals have been formed in stellar processes, which means that the relative amount of metals in the Universe increases for every stellar generation. This build-up of elements is called chemical evolution and might be used both to constrain stellar models as well as understanding the formation and evolution of stellar populations. LÄS MER
