Evidence for Sub-Chandrasekhar Type Ia Supernovae from Stellar Abundances in Dwarf Galaxies

Evan N. Kirby, Justin L. Xie, Rachel Guo +6

There is no consensus on the progenitors of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) despite their importance for cosmology and chemical evolution. We address this question by using our previou…

NLTE Chemical abundances in Galactic open and globular clusters

Mikhail Kovalev, Maria Bergemann, Yuan-Sen Ting +1

Aims We study the effects of non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) on the determination of stellar parameters and abundances of Fe, Mg, and Ti from the medium-resolution spect…

Catalog of Chromium, Cobalt, and Nickel Abundances in Globular Clusters and Dwarf Galaxies

Evan N. Kirby, Justin L. Xie, Rachel Guo +2

We present measurements of the abundances of chromium, cobalt, and nickel in 4113 red giants, including 2277 stars in globular clusters, 1820 stars in the Milky Way's dwarf satelli…

4MOST Consortium Survey 4: Milky Way Disc and Bulge High-Resolution Survey (4MIDABLE-HR)

T. Bensby, M. Bergemann, J. Rybizki +21

The signatures of the formation and evolution of a galaxy are imprinted in its stars. Their velocities, ages, and chemical compositions present major constraints on models of galax…

4MOST Consortium Survey 3: Milky Way Disc and Bulge Low-Resolution Survey (4MIDABLE-LR)

C. Chiappini, I. Minchev, E. Starkenburg +35

The mechanisms of the formation and evolution of the Milky Way are encoded in the orbits, chemistry and ages of its stars. With the 4MOST MIlky way Disk And BuLgE Low-Resolution Su…

4MOST Consortium Survey 2: The Milky Way Halo High-Resolution Survey

N. Christlieb, C. Battistini, P. Bonifacio +19

We will study the formation history of the Milky Way, and the earliest phases of its chemical enrichment, with a sample of more than 1.5 million stars at high galactic latitude. El…

4MOST: Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals

R. S. de Jong, O. Agertz, A. Agudo Berbel +335

We introduce the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST), a new high-multiplex, wide-field spectroscopic survey facility under development for the four-metre-class Vis…
