The R-Process Alliance: Spectroscopic Follow-up of Low-Metallicity Star Candidates from the Best & Brightest Survey
Vinicius M. Placco, Rafael M. Santucci, Timothy C. Beers +17
We present results from an observing campaign to identify low-metallicity stars in the Best & Brightest Survey. From medium-resolution (R ~ 1, 200 - 2, 000) spectroscopy of 857 can…
Pristine Dwarf-Galaxy Survey I: A detailed photometric and spectroscopic study of the very metal-poor Draco II satellite
Nicolas Longeard, Nicolas Martin, Else Starkenburg +17
We present a detailed study of the faint Milky Way satellite Draco II (Dra II) from deep CFHT/MegaCam broadband and photometry and narrow-band metallicity-sensitive CaHK ob…
The Pristine Survey IV: Approaching the Galactic metallicity floor with the discovery of an ultra metal-poor star
Else Starkenburg, David S. Aguado, Piercarlo Bonifacio +22
The early Universe presented a star formation environment that was almost devoid of heavy elements. The lowest metallicity stars thus provide a unique window into the earliest Gala…
