On the evolutionary status of J stars
This research, which is an MSc diploma work in engineering physics at Luleå University of Technology, investigates the properties and possible origins of the J-type carbon stars. In particular, it shows that R stars are almost certainly progenitors of some, but not all, J stars. It also shows that t...
