Red Supergiants as cosmic abundance probes: the first direct metallicity determination of NGC 4038 in the Antennae

C. Lardo, B. Davies, R-P. Kudritzki +5

We present a direct determination of the stellar metallicity in the close pair galaxy NGC~4038 (D = 20 Mpc) based on the quantitative analysis of moderate resolution KMOS/VLT spect…
