    Lambert, D. L; Reddy, B. E (Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2005-09)
    Lithium abundances for a sample of 451 F and G dwarfs including 181 new stars all belonging to the Galactic thin disk are discussed. Lithium abundances, metallicities ([Fe/H]), masses, and ages are determined (Lambert & ...
  • Lithium Abundances in Giants as a Function of Stellar Mass: Evidence for He Flash as the Source of Li Enhancement in Low-mass Giants 
    Mallick, Anohita; Raghubar Singh; Reddy, B. E (American Astronomical Society, 2023-02-10)
