Metal-rich stars accumulate their metals from previous generations
of stars, and so contain the history of their galaxy. By studying
these stars we can gain valuable insights into how metals change
the formation and evolution of stars, and explain the extraordinary
massive star populations observed in the metal-rich region of our
own galaxy. Observations of metal-rich regions have shown that
stars hosting giant planets are generally metal-rich, which has
triggered further observations of metal-rich stars. This has led to
the discovery of new exoplanets, and advances in the study of
planet formation and the late chemical evolution of galaxies. This
book covers many aspects, from spectral line formation to stellar
formation and evolution in high metallicity regimes. It is
invaluable to researchers and graduate students in stellar
evolution, extragalactic astronomy, and planet formation.
