Scientific paper

The discovery is reported of a new lithium super-rich carbon star, IY Hya, and the Li abundance in three other carbon stars (T Sgr, WZ Cas and WX Cyg), previously known as super Li-rich stars is derived. All these stars show abundances in the range log N(Li) = 4.5 (i.e., 10 to 100 times higher than the present cosmic value). Two of them (WX Cyg and T Sgr) present variations in the Li feature when compared with previous studies.
