... ratio [Fe/H][*]
The abundance ratio [X/Y] for two elements X and Y is defined as

\begin{displaymath}\textrm{[X/Y]}=\log\left({\epsilon_{\rm X}\over\epsilon_{\rm ...
...g\left({\epsilon_{\rm X}\over\epsilon_{\rm Y}}\right)_{\odot},
\end{displaymath}

where $\epsilon_{\rm X}$ is the element abundance of element X by number relative to hydrogen.

... AGB phase[*]
Presently we neglect the possibility that stars from the region of initial masses $8<M<12~M_{\odot}$ may become super-AGB stars (e.g. Gil-Pons & García-Berro 2002)

... dust[*]
As key element we usually choose the one of all the elements forming the considered dust species, for which the quantity  $\epsilon/i$ takes the lowest value. Here $\epsilon$ is the abundance of an element by number relative to H, and i is the number of atoms of the element in the chemical formula of the compound. The key element determines the maximum amount of dust material that can be formed for the considered species.

... normal[*]
It is a little puzzling that the STARDUST particles analysed so far mainly seem to be material from the Solar System (see Zolensky et al. 2006; McKeegan et al. 2006).
