A GALEX based search for the sparse young stellar population in the Taurus-Aurigae star forming region
Ana I. Gomez de Castro, Javier López-Santiago, Fátima López-Martínez +5
In this work, we identify 63 bona fide new candidates to T Tauri stars (TTSs) in the Taurus-Auriga region using as baseline its ultraviolet excess. The initial data set has been de…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Properties of the intermediate age open cluster NGC 4815
E. D. Friel, P. Donati, A. Bragaglia +34
NGC 4815 is a populous ~500 Myr open cluster at a Galactocentric radius of 7 kpc observed in the first six months of the Gaia-ESO Survey. Located in the inner Galactic disk, NGC 48…
World Space Observatory-Ultraviolet: ISSIS, the imaging instrument
Ana I Gómez de Castro, Paola Sestito, Néstor Sánchez +7
The Imaging and Slitless Spectroscopy Instrument (ISSIS) will be flown as part of the Science Instrumentation in the World Space Observatory-Ultraviolet (WSO-UV). ISSIS will be the…
Enhanced production of barium in low-mass stars: evidence from open clusters
Valentina D'Orazi, Laura Magrini, Sofia Randich +3
We report the discovery of a trend of increasing barium abundance with decreasing age for a large sample of Galactic open clusters. The observed pattern of [Ba/Fe] vs. age can be r…
The evolution of the Galactic metallicity gradient from high-resolution spectroscopy of open clusters
Laura Magrini, Paola Sestito, Sofia Randich +1
Open clusters offer a unique possibility to study the time evolution of the radial metallicity gradients of several elements in our Galaxy, because they span large intervals in age…
Open clusters as key tracers of Galactic chemical evolution. III. Element abundances in Berkeley 20, Berkeley 29, Collinder 261, and Melotte 66
P. Sestito, A. Bragaglia, S. Randich +3
Galactic open clusters are since long recognized as one of the best tools for investigating the radial distribution of iron and other metals. We employed FLAMES at VLT to collect U…
