The Large Magellanic Cloud through the lens of the James Webb Space Telescope: Binaries and the mass function in the galaxy's outskirts

M. V. Legnardi, F. Muratore, A. P. Milone +16

Nearby galaxies such as the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) offer an ideal laboratory to test the initial mass function under different physical conditions, but previous works have be…

Magnesium isotope ratios in Milky Way and dwarf galaxy stars

M. McKenzie, S. Monty, D. Yong +8

Under the assumption of hierarchical galaxy formation, dwarf galaxies are the closest existing analogues to the high-redshift protogalaxies that merged to form the Milky Way. These…

The complex stellar system M 22: constraining the chemical enrichment from AGB stars using magnesium isotope ratios

M. McKenzie, D. Yong, A. I. Karakas +8

The complex star cluster M 22 (NGC 6656) provides a unique opportunity for studying slow neutron-capture (s-process) nucleosynthesis at low metallicity due to its two stellar group…

Evidence for the Keplerian orbit of a close companion around a giant star

Mats Esseldeurs, Leen Decin, Joris De Ridder +31

Close companions influence stellar evolution through tidal interactions, mass transfer, and mass loss effects. While such companions are detected around young stellar objects, main…

The metallicity variations along the chromosome maps: The Globular Cluster 47 Tucanae

A. F. Marino, A. P. Milone, E. Dondoglio +11

The "chromosome maps" (ChMs) of globular clusters (GCs) have revealed that these ancient structures are not homogeneous in metallicity in various ways, and in different natures. Th…

A deep dive into the Type II Globular Cluster NGC 1851

E. Dondoglio, A. P. Milone, A. F. Marino +13

About one-fifth of the Galactic globular clusters (GCs), dubbed Type II GCs, host distinct stellar populations with different heavy elements abundances. NGC 1851 is one of the most…

Multiple stellar populations in Asymptotic Giant Branch stars of Galactic Globular Clusters

E. P. Lagioia, A. P. Milone, A. F. Marino +8

Multiple stellar populations (MPs) are a distinct characteristic of Globular Clusters (GCs). Their general properties have been widely studied among main sequence, red giant branch…

Chemical abundances along the 1G sequence of the chromosome maps: The Globular Cluster NGC 3201

A. F. Marino, A. P. Milone, A. Sills +10

The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) UV Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters (GCs) has investigated multiple stellar populations by means of the "chromosome map" (ChM) diagnosti…

Chemical Abundances of Planetary Nebulae in the Substructures of M31 -- II. The Extended Sample and A Comparison Study with the Outer-disk Group

Xuan Fang, Ruben Garcia-Benito, Martin A. Guerrero +7

We report deep spectroscopy of ten planetary nebulae (PNe) in the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) using the 10.4m GTC. Our targets reside in different regions of M31, including halo streams…

The chemical compositions of solar twins in the open cluster M67

F. Liu, M. Asplund, D. Yong +5

Stars in open clusters are expected to share an identical abundance pattern. Establishing the level of chemical homogeneity in a given open cluster deserves further study as it is…
