Globular cluster abundance patterns inherited from giant molecular clouds
William McClymont, Vasily Belokurov, Sandro Tacchella +16
Globular clusters exhibit large star-to-star variations and anticorrelations in their light element abundances that are commonly interpreted in terms of in-cluster self-enrichment,…
