Detection of the Actinide Th in an r-process-enhanced Star with Accretion Origin

Detection of the Actinide Th in an r-process-enhanced Star with Accretion Origin

The thorium and six second-peak r -process element (56 ≤ Z ≤ 72) abundances are determined for the α -poor star LAMOST J1124+4535 based on a high-resolution spectrum obtained with the High Dispersion Spectrograph on the Subaru Telescope. The age of J1124+4535 is 11.3 ± 4.4 Gyr using thorium and othe...
