We publish here the second part of our spectroscopic survey at high dispersion of some known and suspected lambda Bootis stars with a view to detecting circumstellar shell features. Eight stars of our sample exhibit such features. These stars are f...

The Royal Stars, also known as the Royal Stars of Persia, are Aldebaran, Regulus, Antares, and Fomalhaut, four prominent stars that played a significant

We describe the early results of an investigation into the spectral characteristics of the hottest Am stars (A0 - A2) in an attempt to link the HgMn and Am classes of chemical peculiarity. A limited sample of hot-Am stars was searched for the prese...
We investigate the light variations of 15 Am stars using four years of high-precision photometry from the Kepler spacecraft and an additional 14 Am stars from the K2 Campaign 0 field. We find that most of the Am stars in the Kepler field have light c...
It is proposed that the `bare' strange matter stars might not be bare, and radio pulsars might be in fact `bare' strange stars. As strange matter stars being intensely magnetized rotate, the induced unipolar electric fields would be large enough to...
Recently discovered massive $α$-enriched (MAE) stars have surface chemistry consistent with members of the older thick disk Milky Way population but high masses ($\sim$ 1.5 - 3 M$_{\odot}$) that suggest these stars are young. The origin of MAE stars...

One of the most intriguing properties of the Ap (and Bp) stars is their slow rotation, compared to the superficially normal main-sequence stars in the same temperature range. In recent years, it has emerged that several percent of the Ap stars have r...
We present our diagnosis of the role that massive stars play in the formation of low- and intermediate-mass stars in OB associations (the Lambda Ori region, Ori OB1, and Lac OB1 associations). We find that the classical T Tauri stars and Herbig Ae/...
Android Five Stars Library is a small library that helps developer add a "Rate My App" dialog to their applications. It's called "Five Stars" because the dialog has a different behaviour based on the rating given by the user. (⭐ 222)
We present radial velocities, equivalent widths, model atmosphere parameters, and abundances or upper limits for 53 species of 48 elements derived from high resolution optical spectroscopy of 313 metal-poor stars. A majority of these stars were selec...
We estimate the frequency of Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor (CEMP) stars among very metal-poor stars, based on an analysis of 349 stars with available high-resolution spectra observed as part of the Hamburg/ESO R-process Enhanced Star (HERES) survey. W...
We present relation of the mean I-band brightness of red clump stars on metallicity. Red clump stars were proposed to be a very attractive standard candle for distance determination. The calibration is based on 284 nearby red giant stars whose high...
Supermassive black hole formation remains an unsolved problem. Quasi-stars have been suggested as a viable heavy-seeding mechanism. In this work, we implement methods for modeling quasi-stars previously used with the Cambridge STARS code into the 1D...
Large surveys of very metal-poor stars have revealed in recent years that a large fraction of these objects were carbon-rich, analogous to the more metal-rich CH-stars. The abundance peculiarities of CH-stars are commonly explained by mass-transfer...
