With an aim to shed light on the origin of Li anomaly observed in a small fraction of red giants, we carried out a spectroscopic study on the observational characteristics of selected 20 bright Li-rich giants, in comparison with a large…

We report detailed chemical abundance analysis of 27 RGB stars towards the Galactic bulge in Baade's Window for elements produced by massive stars: O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca and Ti. All of these elements are overabundant in the bulge relative…

Atomic diffusion and mixing processes in stellar interiors influence the structure and the surface composition of stars. Some of these processes cannot yet be modelled from the first principles. This limits their applicability in stellar…

Open cluster members are coeval and share the same initial bulk chemical compositions. Consequently, differences in surface abundances between members of a cluster that are at different evolutionary stages can be used to study the effects…

Open clusters are one of the best astrophysical laboratories we have available for stellar astrophysics studies. This work presents metallicities and individual abundances for fourteen M dwarfs and six G dwarfs from two well-known open…

Using the 2dF multi-fibre instrument on the AAT, moderate resolution spectra have been obtained for a large sample of stars on the main sequence and at the turnoff in the unusual globular cluster omega Centauri. We investigate the behaviour…

We present the first comprehensive abundance study of the massive, outer halo globular cluster (GC) M 75 (NGC 6864). This unique system shows a very extended trimodal horizontal branch (HB), but no other clues for multiple populations have…

We present FLAMES/GIRAFFE spectroscopy obtained at the Very Large Telescope (VLT). Using these observations we have been able for the first time to observe the Li I doublet in the Main Sequence stars of a Globular Cluster. We also observed…

In previous works, we computed abundances for the red giant in nearly four dozen S-type symbiotic systems (SySt). The abundances provide information about metallicity, evolutionary status, and possible memberships in Galactic stellar…

We have used high-resolution, high-S/N ratio spectra from the UVES spectrograph at the ESO VLT telescope. Long-term radial-velocity measurements and broad-band photometry allow us to determine improved orbital elements and stellar…

It is very likely that most (perhaps all) Galactic globular clusters (GGCs) have experienced two or even more star-formation episodes. This is indicated, in particular, by peculiar chemical composition of the cluster stars which show large…

HYDRA spectra of 287 stars in the field of NGC 2506 from the turnoff through the giant branch are analyzed. With previous data, 22 are identified as probable binaries; 90 more are classified as potential non-members. Spectroscopic analyses…

The location of the Scutum Red-Supergiant (RSG) clusters at the end of the Galactic Bar makes them an excellent probe of the Galaxy's secular evolution; while the clusters themselves are ideal testbeds in which to study the predictions of…

We present observations with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) onboard the Hubble Space Telescope of eleven Lyman continuum (LyC) leaking galaxies at redshifts, z, in the range 0.29-0.43, with oxygen abundances…

Detailed chemical abundance distributions for fourteen elements are derived for eight high-probability stellar members of the solar metallicity old open cluster M67 with an age of $\sim$4 Gyr. The eight stars consist of four pairs, with…

The globular cluster HP~1 is projected at only 3.33 degrees from the Galactic center. Together with its distance, this makes it one of the most central globular clusters in the Milky Way. It has a blue horizontal branch (BHB) and a…

We report chemical abundances of 14 young $\alpha$-rich stars including neutron-capture elements based on high-quality optical spectra from HIRES/Keck I and differential line-by-line analysis. From the comparison of the abundance patterns…

The first eight elements of the periodic table are discussed: H, He, Li, Be, B, C, N, and O. They are referred to as key elements, given their important role in stellar evolution. It is noteworthy that all of them were initially synthesized…

Stellar models with masses ranging from 0.5 to $1.3~M_\odot$ were constructed in order to compare to young cluster observations of Li and of rotation velocities. The amount of Li depletion in cool stars is sensitive to the amount of…

It is now clear that abundance variations from star-to-star among the light elements, particularly C, N, O, Na and Al, are ubiquitous within galactic globular clusters; they appear seen whenever data of high quality is obtained for a…
