• 18 Sco : a solar twin rich in refractory and neutron-capture elements, implications for chemical tagging 

      Meléndez, Jorge; Ramírez, Iván; Karakas, Amanda I.; Yong, David; Monroe, TalaWanda Rose; Bedell, Megan; Bergemann, Maria; Asplund, Martin; Maia, Marcelo Tucci; Bean, Jacob L.; Nascimento Júnior, José Dias do; Bazot, Michael; Alves-Brito, Alan; Freitas, Fabrício Catani de; Castro, Matthieu Sébastien (2014) [Artigo de periódico]
      We study with unprecedented detail the chemical composition and stellar parameters of the solar twin 18 Sco in a strictly differential sense relative to the Sun. Our study is mainly based on high-resolution (R ∼ 110,000), ...
    • The solar twin planet search : IV. The Sun as a typical rotator and evidence for a new rotational braking law for Sun-like stars 

      Santos, Leonardo Augusto Gonçalves dos; Meléndez, Jorge; Nascimento Júnior, José Dias do; Bedell, Megan; Ramírez, Iván; Bean, Jacob L.; Asplund, Martin; Spina, Lorenzo; Dreizler, Stefan; Alves-Brito, Alan; Casagrande, Luca (2016) [Artigo de periódico]
      Context. It is still unclear how common the Sun is when compared to other similar stars in regards to some of its physical properties, such as rotation. Considering that gyrochronology relations are widely used today to ...
