Scandium: A key element for understanding Am stars
Context. Atomic diffusion is believed to cause the abundance anomalies observed in AmFm stars. However, the detailed process has still not been well-established. For instance, two possible scenarios for the diffusion theory are presently envisaged. They differ mainly by the depth from which the abundance anomalies emanate. The first scenario predicts that the abundances are modified in the supe...
متن کاملproteomics a key tool for a better understanding of endometriosis:
endometriosis is a painful reproductive disease afflicting about up to 20% of women. it is one of the most frequent benign gynaecological diseases, however, little is known about the pathological of endometriosis. over the past decade, high-throughput proteomics technologies have evolved considerably and have become increasingly more commonly applied to the investigation of female reproductive ...
متن کاملAM CVn stars
I review our observational and theoretical knowledge of AM CVn stars, focusing on recent developments. These include newly discovered systems, the possibility that two recently discovered extremely short period objects are AM CVn stars and an update on X-ray, UV an optical studies. Theoretical advances include the study of the details of both the donor and accretor, and the physics of the heliu...
متن کاملThe outburst properties of AM CVn stars
We briefly summarize the observational properties of ultra-compact binaries called AM CVn stars. We analize their outbursts originating from the thermal-viscous instability in helium accretion disc. We present our preliminary results in applying the model of Dwarf Novae outbursts to helium discs. We can calculate models of outbursts of reasonable amplitude of 2 mag with a constant α parameter t...
متن کاملLithium in Field Am and Normal A–f-type Stars
Preliminary abundances of lithium and a few other elements have been obtained for 31 field Am stars with good Hipparcos parallaxes, as well as for 36 normal A and F stars. Radial and projected rotational velocities were determined as well. We examine the Li abundance as a function of the stellar parameters: for normal stars, it is clearly bimodal for Teff < 7500 K, while Am-Fm stars are all som...
