Na-O anticorrelation and HB. IX. Kinematics of the program clusters. A link between systemic rotation and HB morphology?

M. Bellazzini, A. Bragaglia, E. Carretta +4

We use accurate radial velocities for 1981 member stars in 20 Galactic globular clusters, collected within our large survey aimed at the analysis of the Na-O anti-correlation, to s…

The chemical evolution of the Galactic Bulge seen through micro-lensing events

Sofia Feltzing, Thomas Bensby, Jorge Meléndez +6

Galactic bulges are central to understanding galaxy formation and evolution. Here we report on recent studies using micro-lensing events to obtain spectra of high resolution and mo…

Chemical enrichment mechanisms in Omega Centauri: clues from neutron-capture elements

Valentina D'Orazi, Raffaele Gratton, Elena Pancino +4

In the complex picture of multiple stellar populations in globular clusters (GCs), a special role is played by NGC 5139 Omega Centauri. At variance with the majority of GCs, Omega…

Chemical evolution of the Galactic bulge as traced by microlensed dwarf and subgiant stars. IV. Two bulge populations

T. Bensby, D. Adén, J. Meléndez +21

[ABRIDGED] Based on high-resolution (R~42000 to 48000) and high signal-to-noise (S/N~50 to 150) spectra obtained with UVES/VLT, we present detailed elemental abundances (O, Na, Mg,…

Multiple stellar populations in the globular cluster NGC 1851

Eugenio Carretta, Sara Lucatello, Raffaele Gratton +2

[Abridged] Detailed chemical tagging of individual stellar populations in the Galactic globular cluster (GC) NGC 1851 is presented. Abundances are derived from FLAMES spectra for t…

The [Fe/H], [C/Fe], and [alpha/Fe] distributions of the Bootes I Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy

David K. Lai, Young Sun Lee, Michael Bolte +5

We present the results of a low-resolution spectral abundance study of 25 stars in the Bootes I dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy. The data were obtained with the LRIS instrument at K…
