Investigating APOKASC Red Giant Stars with Abnormal Carbon-to-nitrogen Ratios
The success of galactic archeology and the reconstruction of the formation history of our Galaxy relies critically on precise ages for large populations of stars. For evolved stars in the red clump and red giant branch, the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio ([C/N]) has recently been identified as a powerful...
