Description
In Papers I (del Peloso et al. 2005, Cat. <J/A+A/434/275>) and II (2005A&A...434..301D) we performed the first determination of the age of the Galactic thin disk from Th/Eu nucleocosmochronology. The present work aimed at reducing the age uncertainty by expanding the stellar sample with the inclusion of seven new objects. The Th and Eu abundances used in the dating procedure were obtained through spectral synthesis, and to perform the synthesis it was necessary to know the atmospheric parameters and chemical abundances of contaminating elements.
