Description

16 Cygni A and B are bright solar-like stars and well-studied analogs that provide valuable insights into the past and future evolution of the Sun. Recent revisions by Takeda (2024) have updated these stars' metallicities and chemical abundances, prompting a reevaluation of their stellar models. In this poster, we remodel the 16 Cygni system, integrating the updated chemical compositions and metallicity data to refine estimates of their mass, radius, and age. We also examine changes in their interior structures.
