The synthetic spectrum technique applied to the molecular feature of the CH (A2Δ-X2π) band near λ4300 Å was employed to obtain carbon abundances in some very old, extremely metal deficient halo stars.
The unevolved stars in the current sample show the null-hypothesis result [C/M] ≃ 0.0, whereas for the evolved ones carbon depletions appear as a signature of mixing effects.
