The Pristine survey X: a large population of low-metallicity stars permeates the Galactic disk
Federico Sestito, Nicolas F. Martin, Else Starkenburg +26
The orbits of the least chemically enriched stars open a window on the formation of our Galaxy when it was still in its infancy. The common picture is that these low-metallicity st…
The Pristine survey -- VII. A cleaner view of the Galactic outer halo using blue horizontal branch stars
Else Starkenburg, Kris Youakim, Nicolas Martin +11
We use the Pristine survey CaHK narrow-band photometry, combined with the SDSS ugr photometry, to provide a cleaner sample of blue horizontal branch stars in the Galactic halo out…
The Pristine Inner Galaxy Survey (PIGS) I: Tracing the kinematics of metal-poor stars in the Galactic bulge
Anke Arentsen, Else Starkenburg, Nicolas F. Martin +20
Our Galaxy is known to contain a central boxy/peanut-shaped bulge, yet the importance of a classical, pressure-supported component within the central part of the Milky Way is still…
Detailed study of the Milky Way globular cluster Laevens 3
Nicolas Longeard, Nicolas Martin, Rodrigo A. Ibata +4
We present a photometric and spectroscopic study of the Milky Way satellite Laevens 3. Using MegaCam/CFHT g and i photometry and Keck II/DEIMOS multi-object spectroscopy, we refine…
The Pristine Survey -- VI. The first three years of medium-resolution follow-up spectroscopy of Pristine EMP star candidates
David S. Aguado, Kris Youakim, Jonay I. González Hernández +27
We present the results of a 3-year long, medium-resolution spectroscopic campaign aimed at identifying very metal-poor stars from candidates selected with the CaHK, metallicity-sen…
The Pristine Dwarf-Galaxy survey - II. In-depth observational study of the faint Milky Way satellite Sagittarius II
Nicolas Longeard, Nicolas Martin, Else Starkenburg +11
We present an extensive study of the Sagittarius II (Sgr II) stellar system using MegaCam g and i photometry, narrow-band, metallicity-sensitive Calcium H&K doublet photometry, aug…
