A Walk on the Retrograde Side (WRS) project. I. Tidying-up the retrograde halo with high-resolution spectroscopy
E. Ceccarelli, D. Massari, A. Mucciarelli +7
Relics of ancient accretion events experienced by the Milky Way are predominantly located within the stellar halo of our Galaxy. However, debris from different objects display over…
The Gaia -ESO Survey: Lithium enrichment histories of the Galactic thick and thin disc
Xiaoting. Fu, D. Romano, A. Bragaglia +32
Lithium abundance in most of the warm metal-poor main sequence stars shows a constant plateau (A(Li)~2.2 dex) and then the upper envelope of the lithium vs. metallicity distributio…
The chemical composition of the low-mass Galactic globular cluster NGC 6362
D. Massari, A. Mucciarelli, E. Dalessandro +6
We present chemical abundances for 17 elements in a sample of 11 red giant branch stars in NGC 6362 from UVES spectra. NGC 6362 is one of the least massive globulars where multiple…
The Search for Multiple Populations in Magellanic Cloud Clusters I: Two Stellar Populations in the Small Magellanic Cloud Globular Cluster NGC 121
F. Niederhofer, N. Bastian, V. Kozhurina-Platais +14
We started a photometric survey using the WFC3/UVIS instrument onboard the Hubble Space Telescope to search for multiple populations within Magellanic Cloud star clusters at variou…
Searching in the dark: the dark mass content of the Milky Way globular clusters NGC288 and NGC6218
A. Sollima, F. R. Ferraro, L. Lovisi +8
We present an observational estimate of the fraction and distribution of dark mass in the innermost region of the two Galactic globular clusters NGC 6218 (M12) and NGC 288. Such an…
Lost and found: evidence of Second Generation stars along the Asymptotic Giant Branch of the globular cluster NGC 6752
E. Lapenna, C. Lardo, A. Mucciarelli +7
We derived chemical abundances for C, N, O, Na, Mg and Al in 20 asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the globular cluster NGC 6752. All these elements (but Mg) show intrinsic sta…
