Intrinsic iron abundance spreads in globular clusters

J. Schiappacasse-Ulloa, S. Lucatello, L. Magrini +2

Globular Clusters (GCs) host multiple stellar populations, likely composed of a subset of FG stars that enriched the intracluster medium and gave rise to SG stars, each characteris…

Observational Signatures and Constraints on the Intermediate Neutron-Capture Process. The Case of the CEMP star TYC 6044-714-1 (RAVE J094921.8-161722)

Riano E. Giribaldi, Diego Vescovi, Laura Magrini +6

Observational abundances of CEMP stars with patterns in between those produced by the rapid and slow nucleosynthesis processes (CEMP-rs stars) are currently invoked as evidence of…

The nucleosynthesis of Ba in the Early Universe. Constraints from elemental abundances and isotopic ratios

Riano E. Giribaldi, Marco Palla, Laura Magrini +6

The [Ba/Eu] abundance ratio is commonly adopted as a tracer of the relative contributions of the slow (s) and rapid (r) neutron-capture processes. However, at [Fe/H] < -2 dex, Ba c…

Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus: Lithium evolution from early red-giant-branch and main-sequence stars

C. T. Nguyen, G. Cescutti, M. M. Bennedik +3

The combination of data from the Gaia satellite and large ground-based spectroscopic surveys recently lead to a milestone understanding of our Galaxy's formation history, marked by…

Ariel stellar characterisation IV. Fundamental parameters of 18 hot stars in the Ariel mission candidate sample

H. Ramler, S. P. D. Borthakur, C. P. Folsom +16

The characterisation of exoplanetary systems depends on the accurate determination of host star parameters. The Ariel mission will probe the atmospheres of a statistically signific…

Wide binaries without viable bound Newtonian orbits

L. Pasquini, R. Saglia, F. Patat +7

Context. Wide binaries offer a unique opportunity to test gravity in the low acceleration regime, where deviations from Newtonian dynamics may appear. Aims. We use high-resolution…

Evidence for multiple crossings and stripping of Gaia-Enceladus/Sausage across the Milky Way

L. Berni, M. Palla, L. Magrini +1

The accretion of Gaia-Enceladus/Sausage (GES) onto the Milky Way (MW) is one of the most prominent features of the Galactic halo revealed by the combination of the Gaia satellite a…

The Milky Way in motion: gauging stellar trajectories that shape the Galactic thin disc

M. L. L. Dantas, R. Smiljanic, R. S. de Souza +2

As stars traverse the Milky Way, their orbits evolve through perturbations that alter their orbital radii. These changes arise from two mechanisms: churning, which modifies angular…

Tracing the Early Milky Way with Globular Clusters: The Diagnostic Power of Neutron-Capture Elements

J. Schiappacasse-Ulloa, L. Berni, S. Lucatello +3

Globular clusters (GCs) are fundamental tracers of the early assembly of the Milky Way (MW). They formed in diverse environments -- including both our Galaxy and dwarf galaxies --…

Lithium evolution in the Galactic thin disc from Main-Sequence and early Red-Giant-Branch stars

C. T. Nguyen, G. Cescutti, F. Matteucci +7

The role of novae as producers of galactic lithium has been suggested since the 1970s, and it has been reconsidered recently with the detection of Be in their outbursts. At the…

Exploring substructures in the Milky Way halo Neural networks applied to Gaia and APOGEE DR 17

L. Berni, L. Spina, L. Magrini +3

The identification of stellar structures in the Galactic halo, including stellar streams and merger remnants, often relies on the dynamics of their constituent stars. However, this…

Shaping Galactic Habitability: the impact of stellar migration and gas giants

E. Spitoni, M. Palla, L. Magrini +9

In exoplanet research, the focus is increasingly on identifying Earth analogs, planets similar in density and habitability potential. As the number of rocky exoplanets grows, paral…

Neutron-Capture Element Signatures in Globular Clusters: Insights from the Gaia-ESO Survey

J. Schiappacasse-Ulloa, L. Magrini, S. Lucatello +8

Globular clusters (GCs) are key to understanding the formation and evolution of our Galaxy. While the abundances of light and Fe-peak elements in GCs have been widely studied, inve…

Probing the origins. II. Unravelling lithium depletion and stellar motion: Intrinsic stellar properties drive depletion, not kinematics

M. L. L. Dantas, R. Smiljanic, D. Romano +4

In Paper I, we classified a stellar sample from the thin disc with a broad range in metallicity as being churned outward or inward, or blurred/undisturbed. In this paper (Paper II)…

The Galactic inner spiral arms revealed by the Gaia ESO Survey chemical abundances. Metallicity and [Mg/Fe] ratios

C. Viscasillas Vázquez, L. Magrini, E. Spitoni +5

Recent observational advances, such as Gaia DR3 GSP-Spec, have highlighted the potential of chemical abundances in tracing and revealing the structure of spiral arms. Building on t…

Explaining the ratio in the Galactic halo: the contribution from shell mergers in primordial massive stars

F. Rizzuti, G. Cescutti, P. Molaro +5

Recent campaigns of observations have provided new measurements of the carbon isotopes in the most metal-poor stars of the Galaxy. These stars are so metal-poor that they could onl…

Probing the origins. I. Generalised Additive Model inference of birth radii for Milky Way stars in the solar vicinity

M. L. L. Dantas, R. Smiljanic, R. S. de Souza +2

We employ a Generalised Additive Model (GAM) to address the limitations inherent in radial metallicity gradients predicted by chemical evolution models, thereby facilitating the es…
