摘要:

通过单独考虑各种CEMP子类,我们试图从丰度上的特定签名中导出参数(如金属丰度,质量,温度和中子源)从丰度上印记的特定签名中表征AGB核合成,并将它们与热盐混合的影响分开,首先挖掘,为了将CEMP星置于一个广泛的背景下,我们从我们自己的样品和文献中收集了大约180颗不同金属丰度,光度类别和丰度模式的恒星的丰度。首先,我们证明了CEMP星具有CEMP-s星和CEMP-no星(我们称之为CEMP-low-s星)的性质。我们还表明,有一个很强的相关性之间的Ba和C丰度的s-唯一的CEMP星。这有力地指出了13 C中子源在低质量AGB星中的作用。对于CEMP-rs星(似乎富含来自s-和r-过程的元素),N丰度与来自第2和第3个s-过程峰的重元素丰度的相关性反而具有22 Ne中子源的特征。再加上CEMP-rs星表现出O和Mg增强的事实,我们得出结论,在污染AGB星的热脉冲期间,极端炎热的条件占上风。最后,我们认为,大多数CEMP没有星(没有过剩的中子捕获元素)可能是极端的金属贫对应的CEMP中子捕获丰富的恒星。在极低的金属丰度([Fe/H]< -3.2)时,CEMP-no星的C增强随金属丰度的增加而减弱。目前的任何AGB模型都没有预测到这一趋势。

英文摘要:

By considering the various CEMP subclasses separately, we try to derive, from the specific signatures imprinted on the abundances, parameters (such as metallicity, mass, temperature, and neutron source) characterizing AGB nucleosynthesis from the specific signatures imprinted on the abundances, and separate them from the impact of thermohaline mixing, first dredge-up, and dilution associated with the mass transfer from the companion.To put CEMP stars in a broad context, we collect abundances for about 180 stars of various metallicities, luminosity classes, and abundance patterns, from our own sample and from literature. First, we show that there are CEMP stars which share the properties of CEMP-s stars and CEMP-no stars (which we call CEMP-low-s stars). We also show that there is a strong correlation between Ba and C abundances in the s-only CEMP stars. This strongly points at the operation of the 13C neutron source in low-mass AGB stars. For the CEMP-rs stars (seemingly enriched with elements from both the s- and r-processes), the correlation of the N abundances with abundances of heavy elements from the 2nd and 3rd s-process peaks bears instead the signature of the 22Ne neutron source. Adding the fact that CEMP-rs stars exhibit O and Mg enhancements, we conclude that extremely hot conditions prevailed during the thermal pulses of the contaminating AGB stars. Finally, we argue that most CEMP-no stars (with no overabundances for the neutron-capture elements) are likely the extremely metal-poor counterparts of CEMP neutron-capture-rich stars. We also show that the C enhancement in CEMP-no stars declines with metallicity at extremely low metallicity ([Fe/H]~< -3.2). This trend is not predicted by any of the current AGB models.
