Scientific paper

In this paper, we present new measurements of the thorium and europium
abundances in metal poor stars. We found the [Th/Fe] and [Eu/Fe] ratios
to be oversolar in halo stars down to the metallicity [Fe/H] ≃
-2.3. Below this metallicity, our data seem to indicate a decrease of
the [Th/Fe] ratio which has to be confirmed by new studies.
