MINCE IV. A detailed analysis of 37 metal-poor and subsolar metallicity stars

L. Sgatti, G. Cescutti, L. Lombardo +13

The project called Measuring at Intermediate metallicity Neutron-Capture Elements (MINCE) primarily focuses on the photospheric abundances of several neutron-capture (NC) elements…

Abundances of CNO in candidate young metal-poor stars

Piercarlo Bonifacio, Elisabetta Caffau, Luca Sbordone +6

In this contribution we investigate the CNO abundances in five apparently young evolved stars, with the aim of discriminating between truly young stars and stars that were rejuvena…

Gaia DR3 high radial velocity stars: Genuine fast-moving objects or outliers?

D. Katz, A. Gómez, E. Caffau +39

The third Gaia data release includes 33.8 million radial velocity measurements, extending to a magnitude of G_RVS = 14. To reach this magnitude limit, spectra were processed down t…

Unveiling the nature of HE 0107-5240

E. Caffau, M. Steffen, P. Molaro +27

The vast majority of the most iron-poor stars in the Galaxy exhibit a strong carbon enhancement, with C/H ratios only about two orders of magnitude below solar. This unusual chemic…

The Gaia RVS Benchmark Stars. III . Confirmed and New High Radial Velocity Stars From Gaia DR3

Elisabetta Caffau, David Katz, Piercarlo Bonifacio +12

High-velocity stars are interesting targets to unveil the formation of the Milky Way. In fact they can be recently accreted from an infalling dwarf galaxies or they can be the resu…

The Gaia RVS benchmark stars II. A sample of stars selected for their Gaia high radial velocity

E. Caffau, D. Katz, A. Gómez +16

The Gaia satellite has already provided the astronomical community with three data releases, and the Radial Velocity Spectrometer (RVS) on board Gaia has provided the radial veloci…

Gaia Data Release 1: Catalogue validation

F. Arenou, X. Luri, C. Babusiaux +42

Before the publication of the Gaia Catalogue, the contents of the first data release have undergone multiple dedicated validation tests. These tests aim at analysing in-depth the C…
