In this work, we present a catalog of 2651 carbon stars from the fourth Data Release (DR4) of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopy Telescope (LAMOST). Using an efficient machine-learning algorithm, we find out these stars from…

We present results from the analysis of 88 carbon stars selected from Hamburg/ESO (HES) survey using low-resolution spectra (R$\sim$1330 \& 2190). The spectra were obtained with the Himalayan Faint Object Spectrograph Camera (HFOSC)…

A new classification system for carbon-rich stars is presented based on an analysis of 51 AGB carbon stars through the most relevant classifying indices available. The extension incorporated, that also represents the major advantage of this…

Stellar spectral classification has been highly useful in the study of stars. While there is a currently accepted spectral classification system for carbon stars, the subset of Hydrogen-deficient Carbon (HdC) stars has not been well…

A sample of 1497 carbon stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud has been observed in the red part of the spectrum with the 2dF facility on the AAT. Of these, 156 have been identified as J-type (i.e. 13C-rich) carbon stars using a technique…

Abundance analysis of carbon has been performed in a sample of 80 late F and early G type dwarf stars in the metallicity range -1.06 < [Fe/H] < 0.26 using the forbidden [C I] line at 8727 A. This line is presumably less sensitive to…
