The R-Process Alliance: A Very Metal-poor, Extremely r-process-enhanced Star with [Eu/Fe] = + 2.2, and the Class of r-III Stars

© 2020. The American Astronomical Society. All rights reserved. We report the discovery of J1521-3538, a bright (V = 12.2), very metal-poor ([Fe/H] = -2.8) strongly r-process-enhanced field horizontal branch star, based on a high-resolution, high signal-to-noise Magellan/MIKE spectrum. J1521-3538 sh...
