Explaining Lithium Enriched Red Giant Branch Stars [E-Book] / by Claudia Aguilera-Gómez
This thesis provides new insights into the seemingly anomalous ubiquity of lithium-rich red giant stars. The theory of stellar evolution, one of the most successful models of modern astrophysics, predicts that red giant stars should display negligible levels of lithium (Li) on their surfaces. Howeve...
