X-shooter spectroscopy of giant stars in the nuclear star cluster
L. Origlia, C. Fanelli, A. Mucciarelli +5
Near-IR spectra of a homogeneous sample of 15 red giants in the Galactic nuclear star cluster, within 1.5 pc of SgrA*, have been acquired with X-shooter at the Very Large Telescope…
Photometric Classification of Stars Around the Milky Way's Central Black Hole: I. Central Parsec
E. Gallego-Cano, T. Fritz, R. Schödel +3
The presence of young massive stars in the Galactic Centre (GC) raises questions about star formation near the black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*). Additionally, the initial mass fu…
Cool stars in the Galactic Center as seen by APOGEE: M giants, AGB stars and supergiant stars/candidates
M. Schultheis, A. Rojas-Arriagada, K. Cunha +11
The Galactic Center region, including the nuclear disk, has until recently been largely avoided in chemical census studies because of extreme extinction and stellar crowding. Makin…
Detailed abundances in the Galactic center: Evidence of a metal-rich alpha-enhanced stellar population
B. Thorsbro, N. Ryde, R. M. Rich +8
We present a detailed study of the composition of 20 M giants in the Galactic center with 15 of them confirmed to be in the Nuclear Star Cluster. As a control sample we have also o…
Detailed near-IR stellar abundances of red giants in the Inner Bulge and Galactic Center
N. Ryde, R. M. Rich, B. Thorsbro +3
Owing to their extreme crowding and high and variable extinction, stars in the Galactic Bulge, within +-2 degrees of the Galactic plane, and especially those in the Nuclear Star Cl…
Detailed abundance analysis of a metal-poor giant in the Galactic Center
N. Ryde, T. K. Fritz, R. M. Rich +4
We report the first results from our program to examine the metallicity distribution of the Milky Way nuclear star cluster connected to SgrA*, with the goal of inferring the star f…
Evidence for a metal-poor population in the inner Galactic Bulge
M. Schultheis, K. Cunha, G. Zasowski +14
The inner Galactic Bulge has, until recently, been avoided in chemical evolution studies due to extreme extinction and stellar crowding. Large, near-IR spectroscopic surveys, such…
