The lithium abundances in a few percent of giants exceed the value predicted by the standard stellar evolution models, and the mechanisms of Li enhancement are still under debate. The Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) survey has obtained over six million spectra in the past five years, and thus provides a great opportunity to search these rare objects and to more clearly understand the mechanisms of Li enhancement. Based on the high-resolution spectrum we obtained the stellar parameters ($T_mathrm{eff}$, $log g$, [Fe/H]), and determined the elemental abundances of Li, C, N, $alpha$, Fe-peak, r-process, s-process elements, and the projected rotational velocity. For a better understanding of the effect of mixing processes, we also derived the $^{12}rm{C}$ to $^{13}rm{C}$ ratio, and constrained the evolutionary status of TYC,3251-581-1 based on the BaSTI stellar isochrones. The super Li-rich giant TYC,3251-581-1 has $rm{A(Li)} = 3.51$, the average abundance of two lithium lines at $lambda = 6708$ AA and 6104 AA based on the non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) analysis. The atmospheric parameters show that our target locates on the luminosity function bump. The low carbon isotopic ratio ($^{12}rm{C}/^{13}rm{C} = 9.0 $), a slow rotational velocity $vsin i = 2.2 rm{km,s}^{-1}$, and no sign of IR excess suggest that additional mixing after first dredge up (FDU) should occur to bring internal synthesized Li to the surface. The low carbon ($[rm{C}/rm{Fe}] sim -0.34$ ) and enhanced nitrogen ($[rm{N}/rm{Fe}] sim 0.33$) are also consistent with the sign of mixing. Given the evolutionary stage of TYC,3251-581-1 with the relatively low $^{12}rm{C}/^{13}rm{C}$, the internal production which replenishes Li in the outer layer is the most likely origin of Li enhancement for this star.

We investigate structure of $^{13}_Lambda{rm C}$ and discuss the difference and similarity between the structures of $^{12}{rm C}$ and $^{13}_Lambda{rm C}$ by answering the questions if the linear-chain and gaslike cluster states, which are proposed to appear in $^{12}{rm C}$, survives, or new structure states appear or not. We introduce a microscopic cluster model called, Hyper-Tohsaki-Horiuchi-Schuck-Ropke (H-THSR) wave function, which is an extended version of the THSR wave function so as to describe $Lambda$ hypernuclei. We obtained two bound states and two resonance (quasi-bound) states for $J^pi=0^+$ in $^{13}_Lambda{rm C}$, corresponding to the four $0^+$ states in $^{12}{rm C}$. However, the inversion of level ordering between the spectra of $^{12}{rm C}$ and $^{13}_Lambda{rm C}$, i.e. that the $0_3^+$ and $0_4^+$ states in $^{13}_Lambda{rm C}$ correspond to the $0_4^+$ and $0_3^+$ states in $^{12}{rm C}$, respectively, is shown to occur. The additional $Lambda$ particle reduces sizes of the $0_2^+$ and $0_3^+$ states in $^{13}_Lambda{rm C}$ very much, but the shrinkage of the $0_4^+$ state is only a half of the other states. In conclusion, the Hoyle state becomes quite a compact object with ${^{9}_Lambda{rm Be}}+alpha$ configuration in $^{13}_Lambda{rm C}$ and is no more gaslike state composed of the $3alpha$ clusters. Instead, the $0_4^+$ state in $^{13}_Lambda{rm C}$, coming from the $^{12}{rm C}(0_3^+)$ state, appears as a gaslike state composed of $alpha+alpha+^{5}_Lambda{rm He}$ configuration, i.e. the Hoyle analog state. A linear-chain state in a $Lambda$ hypernucleus is for the first time predicted to exist as the $0_3^+$ state in $^{13}_Lambda{rm C}$ with more shrunk arrangement of the $3alpha$ clusters along $z$-axis than the $3alpha$ linear-chain configuration realized in the $^{12}{rm C}(0_4^+)$ state.

We use an underground counting lab with an extremely low background to perform an activity measurement for the $^{12}$C+$^{13}$C system with energies down to $Erm_{c.m.}$=2.323 MeV, at which the $^{12}$C($^{13}$C,$p$)$^{24}$Na cross section is found to be 0.22(7) nb. The $^{12}$C+$^{13}$C fusion cross section is derived with a statistical model calibrated using experimental data. Our new result of the $^{12}$C+$^{13}$C fusion cross section is the first decisive evidence in the carbon isotope systems which rules out the existence of the astrophysical S-factor maximum predicted by the phenomenological hindrance model, while confirming the rising trend of the S-factor towards lower energies predicted by other models, such as CC-M3Y+Rep, DC-TDHF, KNS, SPP and ESW. After normalizing the model predictions with our data, a more reliable upper limit is established for the $^{12}$C+$^{12}$C fusion cross sections at stellar energies.
We derive molecular-gas-phase $^{12}$C/$^{13}$C isotope ratios for the central few 100 pc of the three nearby starburst galaxies NGC 253, NGC 1068, and NGC 4945 making use of the $lambda$ $sim$ 3 mm $^{12}$CN and $^{13}$CN $N$ = 1--0 lines in the ALM A Band 3. The $^{12}$C/$^{13}$C isotopic ratios derived from the ratios of these lines range from 30 to 67 with an average of 41.6 $pm$ 0.2 in NGC 253, from 24 to 62 with an average of 38.3 $pm$ 0.4 in NGC 1068, and from 6 to 44 with an average of 16.9 $pm$ 0.3 in NGC 4945. The highest $^{12}$C/$^{13}$C isotopic ratios are determined in some of the outskirts of the nuclear regions of the three starburst galaxies. The lowest ratios are associated with the northeastern and southwestern molecular peaks of NGC 253, the northeastern and southwestern edge of the mapped region in NGC 1068, and the very center of NGC 4945. In case of NGC 1068, the measured ratios suggest inflow from the outer part of NGC 1068 into the circum-nuclear disk through both the halo and the bar. Low $^{12}$C/$^{13}$C isotopic ratios in the central regions of these starburst galaxies indicate the presence of highly processed material.

The neutron yield in $^{12}$C(d,n)$^{13}$N and the proton yield in $^{12}C(d,p)^{13}$C have been measured by deuteron beam from 0.6 MeV to 3 MeV which is delivered from a 4-MeV electro static accelerator bombarding on the thick carbon target. The neu trons are detected at $0degree$, $24degree$, $48degree$ and the protons at $135degree$ in the lab frame. The ratios of the neutron yield to the proton one have been calculated and can be used as an effective probe to pin down the resonances. The resonances are found at 1.4 MeV, 1.7 MeV, 2.5 MeV in $^{12}C(d,p)^{13}$C and at 1.6 MeV, 2.7 MeV in $^{12}$C(d,n)$^{13}$N. This method provides a way to reduce the systematic uncertainty and helps to confirm more resonances in compound nuclei.
Asteroseismology of stars that exhibit solar-like oscillations are enjoying a growing interest with the wealth of observational results obtained with the CoRoT and Kepler missions. In this framework, scaling laws between asteroseismic quantities and stellar parameters are becoming essential tools to study a rich variety of stars. However, the physical underlying mechanisms of those scaling laws are still poorly known. Our objective is to provide a theoretical basis for the scaling between the frequency of the maximum in the power spectrum ($ u_{rm max}$) of solar-like oscillations and the cut-off frequency ($ u_{rm c}$). Using the SoHO GOLF observations together with theoretical considerations, we first confirm that the maximum of the height in oscillation power spectrum is determined by the so-called emph{plateau} of the damping rates. The physical origin of the plateau can be traced to the destabilizing effect of the Lagrangian perturbation of entropy in the upper-most layers which becomes important when the modal period and the local thermal relaxation time-scale are comparable. Based on this analysis, we then find a linear relation between $ u_{rm max}$ and $ u_{rm c}$, with a coefficient that depends on the ratio of the Mach number of the exciting turbulence to the third power to the mixing-length parameter.
