An abundance study of red-giant-branch stars in the Hercules dwarf spheroidal galaxy

D. Adén, K. Eriksson, S. Feltzing +3

Using high-resolution spectroscopy, we provide a determination of [Fe/H] and [Ca/H] for confirmed red-giant branch member stars of the Hercules dwarf spheroidal galaxy. Based on th…

Chemical evolution of the Galactic bulge as traced by microlensed dwarf and subgiant stars. III. Detection of lithium in the metal-poor bulge dwarf MOA-2010-BLG-285S

T. Bensby, M. Asplund, J. A. Johnson +8

Context: In order to study the evolution of Li in the Galaxy it is necessary to observe dwarf or subgiant stars. Abridged Although Li has been extensively studied in the Galactic d…

The ability of intermediate-band Stromgren photometry to correctly identify dwarf, subgiant, and giant stars and provide stellar metallicities and surface gravities

Anna S Arnadottir, Sofia Feltzing, Ingemar Lundstrom

[Abridged] Several large scale photometric and spectroscopic surveys are being undertaken to provide a more detailed picture of the Milky Way. Given the necessity of generalisation…

The formation of very wide binaries during the star cluster dissolution phase

M. B. N. Kouwenhoven, S. P. Goodwin, Richard J. Parker +3

Over the past few decades, numerous wide (>1000 au) binaries in the Galactic field and halo have been discovered. Their existence cannot be explained by the process of star formati…
