The chemical DNA of the Magellanic Clouds V. R-process dominates neutron capture elements production in the oldest SMC stars
Lorenzo Santarelli, Marco Palla, Alessio Mucciarelli +4
We present the chemical abundances of Fe, alpha- and neutron-capture elements in 12 metal-poor Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) giant stars, observed with the high-resolution spectrogr…
Fast Rotating Blue Straggler Stars in the globular cluster NGC 1851
Alex Billi, Lorenzo Monaco, Francesco R. Ferraro +4
In this work we study the rotational velocities of a sample of blue straggler stars (BSSs) and reference stars belonging to the Galactic globular cluster NGC 1851, using high-resol…
The chemical DNA of the Magellanic Clouds III. The first, extragalactic Mg-K anticorrelation: the LMC globular cluster NGC 1786
Deimer Antonio Alvarez Garay, Alessio Mucciarelli, Lorenzo Monaco
In this work we derived [K/Fe] and [Mg/Fe] abundance ratios for six stars of the old globular cluster NGC 1786 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. We employed high-resolution spectra ac…
Young stars discovered in dwarf spheroidal galaxies confirm their recent infall into the Milky way
Francois Hammer, Piercarlo Bonifacio, Elisabetta Caffau +10
Recent observations from the ESA Gaia satellite and with the ESO VLT, have identified the presence of a population of young, 0.5 to 2 Gyr old, stars in the halo and in dwarf sphero…
