Title: The Most Metal-Poor Stars in the Universe, Interstellar
Depletion, Binary Evolution, Lambda Bootes Stars, Mass Loss from Sirius,
Comets Around Beta Pictoris...and Everything In Between!!!
Abstract:
I will discuss all! these topics (plus two more)
and show how they are related to explain some of
the most peculiar stars in the galaxy. It is the
surprising story of apparently unrelated studies
that were all needed to solve a puzzle.
This talk is great for students and for everybody
else who wants to learn about the tricks of stellar
evolution and the marvelous surprises that can occur
when you make remote stellar spectroscopic observations.
