The -Process Alliance: Actinide Abundances, Variation, and Evolution in Metal-Poor Stars
Shivani P. Shah, Rana Ezzeddine, Erika M. Holmbeck +11
The actinides, including thorium (Th), are the heaviest observable elements synthesized in the universe, holding clues to the extremes of the astrophysical and nuclear conditions o…
Detailed Chemical Abundance Analysis of the Brightest Stars in the Turranburra and Willka Yaku Stellar Streams
Kaitlin B. Webber, Terese T. Hansen, Jennifer L. Marshall +20
We present a detailed chemical abundance analysis of the three brightest known stars from each of the Turranburra and Willka Yaku stellar streams using high-resolution Magellan/MIK…
Eridanus III and DELVE 1: Carbon-rich Primordial Star Clusters or the Smallest Dwarf Galaxies?
Joshua D. Simon, Ting S. Li, Alexander P. Ji +8
We present spectroscopy of the ultra-faint Milky Way satellites Eridanus III (Eri III) and DELVE 1. We identify eight member stars in each satellite and place non-constraining uppe…
Chemical Abundances in the Leiptr Stellar Stream: A Disrupted Ultra-faint Dwarf Galaxy?
Kaia R. Atzberger, Sam A. Usman, Alexander P. Ji +11
Chemical abundances of stellar streams can be used to determine the nature of a stream's progenitor. Here we study the progenitor of the recently discovered Leiptr stellar stream,…
Chemical Diversity on Small Scales -- Abundance Analysis of the Tucana V Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy
Terese T. Hansen, Joshua D. Simon, Ting S. Li +5
The growing number of Milky Way satellites detected in recent years has introduced a new focus for stellar abundance analysis. Abundances of stars in satellites have been used to p…
Metallicities for more than 10 million stars derived from Gaia BP/RP spectra
T. Xylakis-Dornbusch, N. Christlieb, T. T. Hansen +3
Context. The third Gaia Data Release, which includes BP/RP spectra for 219 million sources, has opened a new window in the exploration of the chemical history and evolution of the…
Multiple Populations and a CH Star Found in the 300S Globular Cluster Stellar Stream
Sam A. Usman, Alexander P. Ji, Ting S. Li +14
Milky Way globular clusters (GCs) display chemical enrichment in a phenomenon called multiple stellar populations (MSPs). While the enrichment mechanism is not fully understood, th…
Chemical Analysis of the Brightest Star of the Cetus II Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Candidate
K. B. Webber, T. T. Hansen, J. L. Marshall +42
We present a detailed chemical abundance analysis of the brightest star in the ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxy candidate Cetus II from high-resolution Magellan/MIKE spectra. For thi…
Birds of a Feather? Magellan/IMACS Spectroscopy of the Ultra-Faint Satellites Grus II, Tucana IV, and Tucana V
J. D. Simon, T. S. Li, D. Erkal +54
We present Magellan/IMACS spectroscopy of three recently discovered ultra-faint Milky Way satellites, Grus II, Tucana IV, and Tucana V. We measure systemic velocities of V_hel = -1…
