They can also be used to set the zero point of fundamental calibrations in astrophysics, and models of solar evolution.Solar twins can also help answer whether the Sun is unique or not. It used to be thought that the Sun might be unique for its low lithium abundance. This star was one of two stars that were used in 2007 papers by Melendez & Ramırez. To show that the Sun was not unique in this respect as it has lithium abundance similar to our Sun. This has made it a useful star for studies into the problem of the depleted lithium abundance at the solar surface compared with other stars, something that is not yet fully understood, and known as the Lithium depletion problem."@en }
