PublicationOxygen abundances derived in unevolved very metal-poor stars
Oxygen abundances have been derived in a sample of very metal-poor stars from observations of the Oi triplet at /λλ 7771-5 Å and OH lines in the near UV. Iron...

PublicationRadioactive isotopes in star forming regions
We examine the isotope production in star forming regions through a model of stellar-group population synthesis evolution. From this we obtain the light-curves...
