Candidate Members of the VMP/EMP Disk System of the Galaxy from the SkyMapper and SAGES Surveys

Jihye Hong, Timothy C. Beers, Young Sun Lee +15

Photometric stellar surveys now cover a large fraction of the sky, probe to fainter magnitudes than large-scale spectroscopic surveys, and are relatively free from the target-selec…

Probing the Galactic Halo with RR Lyrae Stars -- V. Chemistry, Kinematics, and Dynamically Tagged Groups

Jonathan Cabrera Garcia, Timothy C. Beers, Yang Huang +9

We employ a sample of 135,873 RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) with precise photometric-metallicity and distance estimates from the newly calibrated ------[Fe/H] and …

Chemo-Dynamically Tagged Groups of CEMP Stars in the Halo of the Milky Way. I. Untangling the Origins of CEMP- and CEMP-no Stars

Joseph Zepeda, Timothy C. Beers, Vinicius M. Placco +7

We construct a sample of 644 carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars with abundance analyses based on moderate- to high-resolution spectroscopic studies. Dynamical parameters for t…

Origin of highly -process-enhanced stars in a cosmological zoom-in simulation of a Milky Way-like galaxy

Yutaka Hirai, Timothy C. Beers, Masashi Chiba +5

The -process-enhanced (RPE) stars provide fossil records of the assembly history of the Milky Way and the nucleosynthesis of the heaviest elements. Observations by the -Proce…

The R-Process Alliance: Chemo-Dynamically Tagged Groups of Halo -Process-Enhanced Stars Reveal a Shared Chemical-Evolution History

Dmitrii Gudin, Derek Shank, Timothy C. Beers +11

We derive dynamical parameters for a large sample of 446 -process-enhanced (RPE) metal-poor stars in the halo and disk systems of the Milky Way, based on data releases from the…
