We aim, on the one hand, to study the possible differences of Li abundances between planet hosts and stars without detected planets at effective temperatures hotter than the Sun, and on the other hand, to explore the Li dip and the evolution of Li at high metallicities. Methods. We present lithium abundances for 353 main sequence stars with and without planets in the Teff range 5900–7200 K. We observed 265 stars of our sample with HARPS spectrograph during different planets search programs. We observed the remaining targets with a variety of high-resolution spectrographs.

Porto Alegre 2017 Acknowledgements To my parents, who supported me and made this possible, in a time and place where being in a university was just a distant dream. To my dearest friends Elisabeth, Robert, Augusto, and Natália - who so many times helped me go from "I give up" to "I’ll try once more". To my cats Kira, Fen, and Demi - who lazily join me in bed at the end of the day, and make everything worthwhile. "But, first of all, it will be necessary to explain what is our idea of a cluster of stars, and by what means we have obtained it. For an instance, I shall take the phenomenon which presents itself in many clusters: It is that of a number of lucid spots, of equal lustre, scattered over a circular space, in such a manner as to appear gradually more compressed towards the middle; and which compression, in the clusters to which I allude, is generally carried so far, as, by imperceptible degrees, to end in a luminous center, of a resolvable blaze of light." William Herschel, 1789 Abstract We provide a sample of 170 Galactic Globular Clusters (GCs) and analyse its spatial distribution properties.

  • Dwarfs Walking in a Row the filamentary Nature of the NGC 3109 Association

We find that the original members of the NGC 3109 association, together with the recently discovered and adjacent dwarf irregular Leo P, form a very tight and elongated configuration in space. All these galaxies lie within ∼100 kpc of a line that is '1070 kpc long, from one extreme (NGC 3109) to the other (Leo P), and they show a gradient in the Local Group standard of rest velocity with a total amplitude of 43 km s−1 Mpc−1, and a rms scatter of just 16.8 km s−1. It is shown that the reported configuration is exceptional given the known dwarf galaxies in the Local Group and its surroundings.

  • X-Ray Emission from a Merger Remnant, NGC 7252,The “Atoms-For-Peace” Galaxy
    X-ray emission from a merger remnant, NGC 7252,the \Atoms-for-Peace" galaxy Hisamitsu Awaki Department of Physics, Faculty of Science, Ehime University Hironori Matsumoto1 Department of Earth and Space Science, Osaka University, and Hiroshi Tomida Space Utilization Research Program, National Space Development Agency of Japan, ABSTRACT We observed a nearby merger remnant NGC 7252 with the X-ray satellite ASCA, 13 1 2 and detected X-ray emission with the X-ray flux of (1.8 0.3) 10− ergs s− cm− in ± × 40 1 the 0.5–10 keV band. This corresponds to the X-ray luminosity of 8.1 10 ergs s− . The X-ray emission is well described with a two-component model: a soft× component with kT =0:72 0.13 keV and a hard component with kT > 5:1 keV. Although NGC 7252 is referred± to as a dynamically young protoelliptical, the 0.5–4 keV luminosity of 40 1 the soft component is about 2 10 ergs s− , which is low for an early-type galaxy. The × ratio of LX=LFIR suggests that the soft component originated from the hot gas due to star formation. Its low luminosity can be explained by the gas ejection from the galaxy as galaxy winds. Our observation reveals the existence of hard X-ray emission with the 40 1 2–10 keV luminosity of 5.6 10 ergs s− . This may indicate the existence of nuclear activity or intermediate-mass× black hole in NGC 7252.
