The knowledge of the structure and dynamics of AGB-star atmospheres is crucial to better understand the mass loss. The tomographic method, that relies on the design of spectral masks containing lines forming in given ranges of optical depths in the stellar atmosphere, is an ideal technique for this purpose. It is applied to high-resolution...

We recently presented (Sbordone et al., 2009a) the largest sample to date of lithium abundances in extremely metal-poor (EMP) Halo dwarf and Turn-Off (TO) stars. One of the most crucial aspects in estimating Li abundances is the Teff determination, since the Li I 670.8 nm doublet is highly temperature sensitive. In this short contribution we...

August 10, 2009 (v1)Conference paper
We present the largest sample available to date of lithium abundances in extremely metal poor (EMP) Halo dwarfs. Four Teff estimators are used, including IRFM and Halpha wings fitting against 3D hydrodynamical synthetic profiles. Lithium abundances are computed by means of 1D and 3D-hydrodynamical NLTE computations. Below [Fe/H]~-3, a strong...
