Spectroscopic observations as tracers of stellar nucleosynthesis featuring Shreeya Shetye (KU Leuven) (Opens in a new window)

Online

Seminars

Hosted by: Thibaut Dumont (CNRS Strasbourg)

The groundwork for stellar nucleosynthesis was established over 70 years ago, marking the beginning of a fascinating journey. Since then, substantial progress has unfolded on both theoretical and observational fronts. On the theoretical side, intricate models of stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis have evolved, utilising increasingly precise nuclear data. Simultaneously, the observational realm has witnessed a significant rise in the number of stars analysed.

Nuclear Astrophysics with Chemical Abundances from Non-LTE Radiative Transfer Workshop (Opens in a new window)

Chicago, IL, USA

Workshops & Conferences

Stellar spectra encode a large amount of physical information, such as a star's mass, temperature, radius, age, distance, velocity field, and detailed elemental composition. Stellar spectroscopy is used not just to study the properties of stars, but also to learn about the history of our Milky Way galaxy, the origin of elements and cosmic nucleosynthesis, the nature of dark matter, and the properties of extrasolar planets. The most common stellar atmosphere models assume Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium (LTE).
