Title: Abundance of heavy elements in extremely metal-poor stars 

Date: Wednesday, March 5th, 2008 
Time: 12:00 
Venue: Villa Bazzoni (via Bazzoni, 2)

*********************************************************** 
Abstract: 
35 night of VLT observing time has been used to study the chemical composition of extremely metal-poor stars. These stars are living witnesses of the early stages of the galactic evolution. High resolution, high S/N spectra have been obtained with UVES, the high resolution spectrograph attached to Kueyen, the second unit of the Very Large Telescope. In this talk, I will report on the determination of the abundance of the neutron-capture elements. The results will be discussed in the light of the current knowledge of s-process and r-process nucleosynthesis.
