Enrichment of s- and r-process products in the Milky Ways thin and<br />

thick disk<br />

Abstract in English<br />

Stellar abundances and chemical trends have been studied for 67 F- and G-dwarf stars in the<br />

solar neighbourhood. Based on high-resolution spectra, abundances for Eu, Nd and Y have<br />

been measured by matching syntetic spectra to the observed spectra. Eu is almost a pure r-<br />

process element, Y is almost a pure s-process element and Nd is a god mixing of the two<br />

processes. The abundances have been compared with the abundances for Ba, Mg and Fe. The<br />

results gives a hint of how the thin and thick disk in the Milky Way have evolved.
