TL;DR: In this article, the Geneva-Copenhagen survey was used for a re-analysis of the spectral properties of the stars in the solar neighborhood and the results showed that the stars are on average 100 K hotter and 0.1 dex more metal rich, which shifted the peak of the metallicity distribution function around the solar value.

TL;DR: In this paper, a large set of solar twins, stars which are spectroscopically and photometrically identical to the Sun, were used to set the absolute zero point of the effective temperature scale to within few degrees.

TL;DR: In this paper, the abundance of 19 elements in a sample of 64 stars with fundamental parameters very similar to solar, which minimizes the impact of systematic errors in their spectroscopic 1D-LTE differential analysis, using high-resolution (R � 60 000), high signal-to-noise ratio (S /N � 200) spectra.

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed elemental abundances (O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Ti, Cr, Fe, Ni, Zn, Y, and Ba) and stellar ages for 12 new microlensed dwarfs and subgiant stars in the Galactic bulge were presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed abundance results from six large independent stellar abundance surveys to determine whether they confirm or reject the observational finding that the elemental abundances derived for solar analogs in these six studies are consistent with the trend suggested as a planet formation signature.
