摘要:

我们建议在这里,锂减少在超太阳金属丰度观察到的高分辨率光谱调查可以解释的混合人口的相互作用,来自银河系盘的内部区域。这些恒星较低的锂含量是由内而外的盘形成加上径向迁移的结果。在这个框架下,具有超太阳金属丰度的本地恒星将迁移到太阳附近,并在旅行期间耗尽其原始锂。为了达到这样的结果,我们利用了AMBRE目录的锂丰度结合化学演化模型,考虑到不同的核合成源的贡献,锂富集。大部分迁移的恒星可以解释在超太阳金属丰度下观察到的较低锂丰度。我们强调,目前还没有恒星模型能够预测这种超太阳金属丰度恒星的Li耗尽,太阳Li耗尽必须假设。此外,目前还没有可靠的定量估计太阳附近迁移恒星的比例及其旅行时间。我们的研究结果表明,它是多么重要,以适当地包括径向迁移时,比较化学演化模型的观察,在这种情况下,在较大的金属丰度锂减少并不一定意味着恒星产量必须修改,与文献中以前的说法相反。

英文摘要:

We propose here that the lithium decrease at super-solar metallicities observed in high resolution spectroscopic surveys can be explained by the interplay of mixed populations, coming from the inner regions of the Milky Way disc. The lower lithium content of these stars is a consequence of inside-out disc formation, plus radial migration. In this framework, local stars with super-solar metallicities would have migrated to the solar vicinity and depleted their original lithium during their travel time. To arrive to such a result, we took advantage of the AMBRE catalog of lithium abundances combined with chemical evolution models which take into account the contribution to the lithium enrichment by different nucleosynthetic sources. A large proportion of migrated stars can explain the observed lower lithium abundance at super-solar metallicities. We stress that nowadays, there is no stellar model able to predict Li-depletion for such super-solar metallicity stars, and the Solar Li-depletion has to be assumed. In addition, it currently exists no solid quantitative estimate of the proportion of migrated stars in the Solar neighborhood and their travel time. Our results illustrate how important it is to properly include radial migration when comparing chemical evolution models to observations, and that in this case, the lithium decrease at larger metallicities does not necessarily imply that stellar yields have to be modified, contrary to previous claims in literature.
