                         evolution and exoplanet chemical composition studies. We have 
                         measured C and N abundances and C-12/C-13 ratios for a sample of 
                         63 solar twins spanning a wide range in age, based on spectral 
                         synthesis of a comprehensive list of CHA-X and CNB-X features 
                         using HARPS spectra. The analysis of 55 thin disc solar twins 
                         confirms the dependences of [C/Fe] and [N/Fe] on [Fe/H]. [N/Fe] is 
                         investigated as a function of [Fe/H] and age for the first time 
                         for these stars. Our derived correlation [C/Fe]-age agrees with 
                         works for solar-type stars and solar twins, but the [N/Fe]-age 
                         correlation does not. The relations [C,N/Fe]-[Fe/H] and 
                         [C,N/Fe]-age for the solar twins lay under solar. C-12/C-13 is 
                         found correlated with [Fe/H] and seems to have decreased along the 
                         evolution of the local thin disc. Predictions from chemical 
                         evolution models for the solar vicinity corroborate the relations 
                         [C,N/Fe]-[Fe/H], C-12/C-13-age, and [N/O]-[O/H], but do not for 
                         the C-12/C-13-[Fe/H] and [C/O]-[O/H] relations. The N/O ratio in 
                         the Sun is placed at the high end of the homogeneous distribution 
                         of solar twins, which suggests uniformity in the N-O budget for 
                         the formation of icy planetesimals, watery superearths, and giant 
                         planets. C and N had different nucleosynthetic origins along the 
                         thin disc evolution, as shown by the relations of [C/N], [C/O], 
                         and [N/O] against [O/H] and age. [C/N] and [C/O] are particularly 
                         observed increasing in time for solar twins younger than the 
                         Sun.",
