The Fractions of Inner- and Outer-Halo Stars in the Local Volume
Deokkeun An, Timothy C. Beers, Rafael M. Santucci +4
We obtain a new determination of the metallicity distribution function (MDF) of stars within - kpc of the Sun, based on recently improved co-adds of photometry f…
Modelling the observed properties of carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars using binary population synthesis
C. Abate, O. R. Pols, R. J. Stancliffe +4
The stellar population in the Galactic halo is characterised by a large fraction of CEMP stars. Most CEMP stars are enriched in -elements (CEMP- stars), and some of these are…
Metal-Poor Stars Observed with the Magellan Telescope. III. New Extremely and Ultra Metal-Poor Stars from SDSS/SEGUE and Insights on the Formation of Ultra Metal-Poor Stars
Vinicius M. Placco, Anna Frebel, Young Sun Lee +5
We report the discovery of one extremely metal-poor (EMP; [Fe/H]<-3) and one ultra metal-poor (UMP; [Fe/H]<-4) star selected from the SDSS/SEGUE survey. These stars were identified…
The Frequency of Field Blue-Straggler Stars in the Thick Disk and Halo System of the Galaxy
Rafael M. Santucci, Vinicius M. Placco, Silvia Rossi +5
We present an analysis of a new, large sample of field blue-straggler stars (BSSs) in the thick disk and halo system of the Galaxy, based on stellar spectra obtained during the Slo…
