21. The death throes of massive stars
Sammanfattning : Massive evolved stars affect their local surroundings as they go through phases of intense mass-loss and eventually explode as supernovae, adding kinetic energy and freshly synthesised material to the interstellar medium. The circumstellar material ejected by the star affects the shape and evolution of the future supernova remnant, and how the material is incorporated into the interstellar medium. LÄS MER
22. Laboratory and Stellar Spectra in High Resolution: Studies of Fe, Pt and Tl in Peculiar Stars
Sammanfattning : The near-infrared spectrum of upsilon Sagittarii has been registered using the SOFIN high resolution spectrometer on the Nordic Optic Telescope, La Palma. For the first time 4f-5g transitions of Fe II in any astrophysical spectrum have been identified. LÄS MER
23. Probing the effect of UV radiation on the chemistry in circumstellar envelopes around evolved stars
Sammanfattning : Low to intermediate mass (0.8 - 8 M⊙) stars lose a substantial amount of their mass in the last phase of stellar evolution, the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase. Hence, they are one of the main suppliers of dust and gas in the interstellar medium and important for the enrichment of galaxies. LÄS MER
24. Exploring the Chemical Evolution of Globular Clusters and their Stars : Observational Constraints on Atomic Diffusion and Cluster Pollution in NGC 6752 and M4
Sammanfattning : Through the cosmic matter cycle, the chemical evolution of the Milky Way is imprinted in the elemental abundance patterns of late-type stars (spectral types F to K). Due to their long lifetimes ( 1 Hubble time), these stars are of particular importance when it comes to studying the build-up of elements during the early times of our Galaxy. LÄS MER
25. UV Chemistry in the Circumstellar Envelopes of Evolved Stars
Sammanfattning : Low- and intermediate-mass stars eject a substantial amount of their material into space during a late phase of stellar evolution, the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase. Therefore, they impact the chemistry of the interstellar medium. Due to the intense mass loss, a circumstellar envelope (CSE), rich in gas and dust, forms around the AGB star. LÄS MER
