Carbon and Oxygen Isotopic Ratios. II. Semiregular Variable M Giants

Thomas Lebzelter, Kenneth H. Hinkle, Oscar Straniero +3

Carbon and oxygen isotopic ratios are reported for a sample of 51 SRb- and Lb-type variable asymptotic giant branch stars. Vibration-rotation first- and second-overtone CO lines in…

Properties of carbon stars in the Solar neighbourhood based on Gaia DR2 astrometry

C. Abia, P. de Laverny, S. Cristallo +2

We find that the combined LF of N- and SC-type stars are consistent with a Gaussian distribution peaking at M_bol~ -5.2 mag. The resulting LF however shows two tails at lower and h…

Chemical evolution with rotating massive star yields II. A new assessment of the solar s- and r- process components

N. Prantzos, C. Abia, S. Cristallo +2

The decomposition of the Solar system abundances of heavy isotopes into their s- and r- components plays a key role in our understanding of the corresponding nuclear processes and…

A DECam View of the Diffuse Dwarf Galaxy Crater II: The Colour-Magnitude Diagram

A. R. Walker, C. E. Martínez-Vázquez, M. Monelli +12

We present a deep Blanco/DECam colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) for the large but very diffuse Milky Way satellite dwarf galaxy Crater II. The CMD shows only old stars with a clearly…

Astroinformatics based search for globular clusters in the Fornax Deep Survey

Giuseppe Angora, Massimo Brescia, Stefano Cavuoti +15

In the last years, Astroinformatics has become a well defined paradigm for many fields of Astronomy. In this work we demonstrate the potential of a multidisciplinary approach to id…

Another relic bulge globular cluster: ESO 456-SC38 (Djorgovski~2)

S. Ortolani, E. V. Held, D. Nardiello +7

The object ESO456-SC38 (Djorgovski 2) is one of the globular clusters that is closest to the Galactic center. It is on the blue horizontal branch and has a moderate metallicity of…
