斯隆数字巡天中的富锂场巨人
Lithium-Rich Field Giants in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
摘要：
我们提出了一个搜索后主序星在银河系中的锂丰度巨大。使用斯隆数字巡天的中分辨率光谱，以及来自Hobby-Eberly望远镜的高分辨率后续光谱，我们确定了23颗log λ（Li）大于1.95的关闭后恒星，其中14颗log λ（Li）> 2.3，8颗log λ（Li）> 3.0，远高于演化恒星预期的低水平。与理论等时线的比较表明，我们的一些富锂恒星隶属于上红巨星分支，渐近巨星分支和红团，而不是RGB凸点，这是一个挑战，现有的模型的锂生产在演化的恒星。
英文摘要：
We present a search for post-main-sequence field stars in the Galaxy with atypically large lithium abundances. Using moderate-resolution spectra taken as part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, along with high-resolution followup spectroscopy from the Hobby-Eberly Telescope, we identify 23 post-turnoff stars with log epsilon(Li) greater than 1.95, including 14 with log epsilon(Li) > 2.3 and 8 with log epsilon(Li) > 3.0, well above the low level expected for evolved stars. Comparison with theoretical isochrones indicates that some of our Li-rich stars are affiliated with the upper red giant branch, the asymptotic giant branch and the red clump rather than the RGB bump, which is a challenge to existing models of Li production in evolved stars.
