    The ESO Large Programme “First Stars”

    In ESO period 65 (April–September 2000) the large programme 165.N-0276, led by Roger Cayrel, began making use of UVES at the Kueyen VLT telescope. Known within the Team and outside as “First Stars”, it was aim...

    Lithium Abundance in Pop.II Stars A post-HIPPARCOS discussion

    The relation between the lithium abundance observed in Population II stars and the primordial abundance, is still an open question (see Cayrel and Duncan, this meeting). A few recent results are discussed. HIP...

    Nucleosynthesis in the First Galactic Stars

    Our aim is to study the detailed chemical composition of the first galactic stars, which contain an important record of the products of nucleosynthesis in the Big Bang and the earliest stellar generations. Sta...

    Lithium in Old Binary Stars

    A detailed analysis of high resolution, high signal to noise spectra of twenty metal deficient binaries (−2.9 < [Fe/H] < −0.4) with periods ranging from 220d to 1.8d is presented. For most of the stars, in add...

    Observational Status of Lithium in Stars

    Some of the new data about lithium abundance in stars are reviewed here. The data, that seem more directly linked with the problem of the primordial nucleosynthesis, are briefly discussed. In order to reach a ...

    Accuracy of the determination of the abundances in solar type stars

    The accuracy of the abundances are of course especially interesting when compared to some variations observed : the problem is to find if these variations are significantly larger than the uncertainties. The a...

    Nitrogen enhancement in metal-poor dwarfs: From inside or outside?

    The five known metal-poor dwarfs with an enhanced N/Fe ratio have been observed spectroscopically. Two of these dwarfs have no lithium line; the absence of lithium is most probably accounted for by the usual c...
