Mass Fraction of 13C-Pocket in Metal-Poor AGB Stars and the Primary Nature of Neutron Source

Chemical abundances of very metal-poor s-rich stars contain excellent information to set new constraints on models of neutron-capture processes at low metallicity. Using the parametric approach based on the radiative s-process nucleosynthesis model, we obtain the mass fraction q of 13 C-pocket, the overlap factor r, the neutron exposure per interpulse △τ, and the component coefficients of the s-process and the r-process for 25 s-rich stars, respectively. We find that q deduced for the lead stars is comparable to the overlap factor r, which is larger than the standard case （hereafter ST case） of the AGB model （q - 0.05） about 10 times, and AT are about 10 times smaller than the ST case （AT = 7.0 mbarn^-1）. Although the two parameters obtained for the lead stars are very different from the ST case of the AGB stellar model, it is worth noting that the total amounts of 13 C in metal-poor condition are close to the ST case. The above relation is a significant evidence for the primary nature of the neutron source and the lead stars could be polluted by low-mass AGB stars. Because interpulse period declines with increasing stellar mass, for high-mass AGB star, the neutron irradiation may be terminated due to their shorter interpulse period. Thus the neutron exposure per interpulse of the larger AGB stars should be about 10 times smaller than the ST case. In this ease, the primary nature of the neutron source also exists.     

高压变质岩中角闪石晶内滑动的电子显微镜研究

本文利用电子显微镜研究了江苏东海榴辉岩中的角闪石和陕西鱼洞子群变质角闪岩中的角闪石微结构,发现这些角闪石存在位错和其他缺陷。在榴辉岩的角闪石中,位错为刃型位错,刃位错线平行c轴,B矢量值为9,矢量方向有两类:大多数//[100],少数//b轴。位错露头在a~*-b~*面上线型排列成位错壁。位错壁两侧的亚晶粒有微小的取向偏差,形成2—5°的小角晶界,且刃位错露头间隔越密,晶体扭曲越大,小角晶界也越大。在含水条件下角闪石通过交代反应,逐步增宽pyribole链体,在剪切带内生成滑石结构,并不断把角闪石颗粒细粒化。     

Neutron-Capture Elements in the Double-Enhanced Star HE 1305-0007： a New s- and r-Process Paradigm

The star HE 1305-0007 is a metal-poor double-enhanced star with metallicity [Fe/H] = -2.0, which is just at the upper limit of the metallicity for the observed double-enhanced stars. Using a parametric model, we find that almost all s-elements were made in a single neutron exposure. This star should be a member of a post-commonenvelope binary. After the s-process material has experienced only one neutron exposure in the nucleosynthesis region and is dredged-up to its envelope, the AGB evolution is terminated by the onset of common-envelope evolution. Based on the high radial-velocity of HE 1305-0007, we speculate that the star could be a runaway star from a binary system, in which the AIC event has occurred and produced the r-process elements.     

LAMOST medium-resolution spectroscopic survey of binarity and exotic star (LAMOST-MRS-B): Observation strategy and target selection

LAMOST-MRS-B is one of the sub-surveys of LAMOST medium-resolution ($R\sim7500$) spectroscopic survey. It aims at studying the statistical properties (e.g., binary fraction, orbital period distribution, mass ratio distribution) of binary stars and exotic stars. We intend to observe about 30000 stars ($10 {\rm mag}\leq G < 14.5$ mag) with at least 10 visits in five years. We first planned to observe 25 plates around the galactic plane in 2018. Then the plates were reduced to 12 in 2019 because of the limitation of observation. At the same time, two new plates located at the high galactic latitude were added to explore binary properties influenced by the different environments. In this survey project, we set the identified exotic and low-metallicity stars with the highest observation priorities. For the rest of the selected stars, we gave the higher priority to the relatively brighter stars in order to obtain high quality spectra as many as possible. Spectra of 49129 stars have been obtained in LAMOST-MRS-B field and released in DR8, of which 28828 and 3375 stars have been visited more than twice and ten times with $\rm SNR \geq 10$, respectively. Most of the sources are B-, A-, and F-type stars with $\rm -0.6< [Fe/H] < 0.4 $ dex. We also obtain 347 identified variable and exotic stars and about 250 stars with $\rm [Fe/H] <-1$ dex. We measure radial velocities (RVs) by using 892233 spectra of the stars. The uncertainties of RV achieve about $1$ ${\rm km \cdot s^{-1}}$and $10$ ${\rm km \cdot s^{-1}}$ for 95% of late- and early-type stars, respectively.
