Red Supergiants as cosmic abundance probes: the first direct metallicity determination of NGC 4038 in the Antennae
C. Lardo, B. Davies, R-P. Kudritzki +5
We present a direct determination of the stellar metallicity in the close pair galaxy NGC~4038 (D = 20 Mpc) based on the quantitative analysis of moderate resolution KMOS/VLT spect…
Red Supergiant Stars as Cosmic Abundance Probes: KMOS Observations in NGC 6822
L. R. Patrick, C. J. Evans, B. Davies +5
We present near-IR spectroscopy of red supergiant (RSG) stars in NGC 6822, obtained with the new VLT-KMOS instrument. From comparisons with model spectra in the J-band we determine…
Kepler-445, Kepler-446 and the Occurrence of Compact Multiples Orbiting Mid-M Dwarf Stars
Philip S. Muirhead, Andrew W. Mann, Andrew Vanderburg +7
We confirm and characterize the exoplanetary systems Kepler-445 and Kepler-446: two mid-M dwarf stars, each with multiple, small, short-period transiting planets. Kepler-445 is a m…
