Abundance ratios of red giants in low mass ultra faint dwarf spheroidal galaxies

P. François, L. Monaco, P. Bonifacio +3

Low mass dwarf spheroidal galaxies are key objects for our understanding of the chemical evolution of the pristine Universe and the Local Group of galaxies. Abundance ratios in sta…

Lithium abundance in a turnoff halo star on an extreme orbit

Monique Spite, François Spite, Elisabetta Caffau +1

The lithium abundance in turnoff stars of the old population of our Galaxy is remarkably constant in the metallicity interval -2.8\textless{}[Fe/H] \textless{}-2.0, defining a plat…

The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. X. Properties of Ultra-Compact Dwarfs in the M87, M49 and M60 Regions

Chengze Liu, Eric W. Peng, Patrick Cote +18

We use imaging from the Next Generation Virgo cluster Survey (NGVS) to present a comparative study of ultra-compact dwarf (UCD) galaxies associated with three prominent Virgo sub-c…

Chemical abundances of giant stars in the Crater stellar system

P. Bonifacio, E. Caffau, S. Zaggia +4

We obtained spectra for two giants of Crater (Crater J113613-105227 and Crater J113615-105244) using X-Shooter at the VLT. The spectra have been analysed with the MyGIsFoS code usi…

TOPoS: II. On the bimodality of carbon abundance in CEMP stars. Implications on the early chemical evolution of galaxies

P. Bonifacio, E. Caffau, M. Spite +18

In the course of the TOPoS (Turn Off Primordial Stars) survey, aimed at discovering the lowest metallicity stars, we have found several carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars. We…

26Al kinematics: superbubbles following the spiral arms? Constraints from the statistics of star clusters and HI supershells

Martin G. H. Krause, Roland Diehl, Yiannis Bagetakos +6

High energy resolution spectroscopy of the 1.8 MeV radioactive decay line of 26Al with the SPI instrument on board the INTEGRAL satellite has recently revealed that diffuse 26Al ha…

Planck intermediate results. XXXV. Probing the role of the magnetic field in the formation of structure in molecular clouds

Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +195

Within ten nearby (d < 450 pc) Gould Belt molecular clouds we evaluate statistically the relative orientation between the magnetic field projected on the plane of sky, inferred fro…

Planck intermediate results. XXXIV. The magnetic field structure in the Rosette Nebula

Planck Collaboration, N. Aghanim, M. I. R. Alves +197

Planck has mapped the polarized dust emission over the whole sky, making it possible to trace the Galactic magnetic field structure that pervades the interstellar medium (ISM). We…
