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.

    An Upper Boundary in the Mass-Metallicity Plane of Exo-Neptunes

    MNRAS 000, 1{8 (2016) Preprint 8 November 2018 Compiled using MNRAS LATEX style file v3.0 An upper boundary in the mass-metallicity plane of exo-Neptunes Bastien Courcol,1? Fran¸cois Bouchy,1 and Magali Deleuil1 1Aix Marseille University, CNRS, Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de Marseille UMR 7326, 13388 Marseille cedex 13, France Accepted XXX. Received YYY; in original form ZZZ ABSTRACT With the progress of detection techniques, the number of low-mass and small-size exo- planets is increasing rapidly. However their characteristics and formation mechanisms are not yet fully understood. The metallicity of the host star is a critical parameter in such processes and can impact the occurence rate or physical properties of these plan- ets. While a frequency-metallicity correlation has been found for giant planets, this is still an ongoing debate for their smaller counterparts. Using the published parameters of a sample of 157 exoplanets lighter than 40 M⊕, we explore the mass-metallicity space of Neptunes and Super-Earths. We show the existence of a maximal mass that increases with metallicity, that also depends on the period of these planets. This seems to favor in situ formation or alternatively a metallicity-driven migration mechanism. It also suggests that the frequency of Neptunes (between 10 and 40 M⊕) is, like giant planets, correlated with the host star metallicity, whereas no correlation is found for Super-Earths (<10 M⊕).

Detailed chemical abundances of volatile and refractory elements have been discussed in the context of terrestrial-planet formation during in past years. Aims. The HARPS-GTO high-precision planet-search program has provided an extensive database of stellar spectra, which we have inspected in order to select the best-quality spectra available for late type stars. We study the volatile-to-refractory abundance ratios to investigate their possible relation with the low-mass planetary formation. Methods. We present a fully differential chemical abundance analysis using high-quality HARPS and UVES spectra of 61 late F- and early G-type main-sequence stars, where 29 are planet hosts and 32 are stars without detected planets. Results. As for the previous sample of solar analogs, these stars slightly hotter than the Sun also provide very accurate Galactic chemical abundance trends in the metallicity range −0.3 < [Fe/H] < 0.4.

    King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO)

    King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO) Ascot Racecourse Background Information for the 65th Running Saturday, July 25, 2015 Winners of the Investec Derby going on to the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO) Unbeaten Golden Horn, whose victories this year include the Investec Derby and the Coral-Eclipse, will try to become the 14th Derby winner to go on to success in Ascot’s midsummer highlight, the Group One King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Sponsored by QIPCO), in the same year and the first since Galileo in 2001. Britain's premier all-aged 12-furlong contest, worth a boosted £1.215 million this year, takes place at 3.50pm on Saturday, July 25. Golden Horn extended his perfect record to five races on July 4 in the 10-furlong Group One Coral- Eclipse at Sandown Park, beating older opponents for the first time in great style. The three-year-old Cape Cross colt, owned by breeder Anthony Oppenheimer and trained by John Gosden in Newmarket, captured Britain's premier Classic, the Investec Derby, over 12 furlongs at Epsom Downs impressively on June 6 after being supplemented following a runaway Betfred Dante Stakes success at York in May. If successful at Ascot on July 25, Golden Horn would also become the fourth horse capture the Derby, Eclipse and King George in the same year. ËËË Three horses have completed the Derby/Eclipse/King George treble in the same year - Nashwan (1989), Mill Reef (1971) and Tulyar (1952). ËËË The 2001 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes saw Galileo become the first Derby winner at Epsom Downs to win the Ascot contest since Lammtarra in 1995.

    Tom Brown Apple Search---2015 Some of the Apples Found During

    To: Friends of Old Apples January 10, 2015 From: Tom Brown Apple Search---2015 Some of the apples found during the past year include: Almeda, August Queen, Autumn Strawberry, Big Nonsuch, Big Flavor, Cider Sweet, Coffelt Beauty, Early Melon, Green Spitzenburg, Haynes Big Red, Henry, Horse (very large, white), Isaac Newton (Flower of Kent), Pear Sweetning, Queen of the Orchard, Red Transparent, and Thinskin (light green). One apple of particular interest is the Haynes Big Red at the home of Jim Haynes of Letcher Co., KY, this is a seedling his father, Joe, found; the apples can grow to immense size, one was said to be over two pounds. This year I would like to share with you small stories of delightful animal encounters. Turtle Rescue---Searching for old apples involves driving many miles, for instance my “new car” (a ’04 Subaru) has 268,911 miles on it and my older ’95 Subaru, now the “Doggie Wagon”, has 308,989 miles. Most of these miles were accumulated searching for old apples. While driving, I frequently encounter turtles trying to cross the road. I always stop and help them safely make the passage, being sure they are completely clear of the road and past any side ditches or embankments. These are wonderful small creatures that have lived in harmony with their environment for millions of years; the same cannot be said about us humans. My best turtle rescue day was a late spring morning while driving 56 miles to the Patrick County Strawberry Festival where I was an exhibitor. On that trip I helped five box turtles safely cross the road.
