Ceci n'est pas a globular cluster: the metallicity distribution of the stellar system Terzan 5
Davide Massari, A. Mucciarelli, F. R. Ferraro +9
We present new determinations of the iron abundance for 220 stars belonging to the stellar system Terzan 5 in the Galactic bulge. The spectra have been acquired with FLAMES at the…

Chemical and kinematical properties of Galactic bulge stars surrounding the stellar system Terzan 5
Davide Massari, A. Mucciarelli, F. R. Ferraro +8
As part of a study aimed at determining the kinematical and chemical properties of Terzan 5, we present the first characterization of the bulge stars surrounding this puzzling stel…
