Detailed Abundances for a Large Sample of Giant Stars in the Globular Cluster 47 Tucanae (NGC 104)

Maria J. Cordero, Catherine A. Pilachowski, Christian I. Johnson +3

47 Tuc is an ideal target to study chemical evolution and GC formation in massive more metal-rich GCs since is the closest, massive GC. We present chemical abundances for O, Na, Al…

The Ninth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey

III Collaboration, Christopher P. Ahn, Rachael Alexandroff +224

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III) presents the first spectroscopic data from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS). This ninth data release (DR9) of the SDSS…

The Eighth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Data from SDSS-III

III collaboration, Hiroaki Aihara, Carlos Allende Prieto +178

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) started a new phase in August 2008, with new instrumentation and new surveys focused on Galactic structure and chemical evolution, measurements…

The Ubiquity of the Rapid Neutron-Capture Process

I. U. Roederer, J. J. Cowan, A. I. Karakas +5

To better characterize the abundance patterns produced by the r-process, we have derived new abundances or upper limits for the heavy elements zinc (Zn), yttrium (Y), lanthanum (La…

Elemental abundances in the Galactic bulge from microlensed dwarf stars

T. Bensby, S. Feltzing, J. A. Johnson +11

We present elemental abundances of 13 microlensed dwarf and subgiant stars in the Galactic bulge, which constitute the largest sample to date. We show that these stars span the ful…

OGLE-2009-BLG-076S - The most metal-poor dwarf star in the Galactic bulge

T. Bensby, S. Feltzing, J. A. Johnson +6

Measurements based on a large number of red giant stars suggest a broad metallicity distribution function (MDF) for the Galactic bulge, centered on [Fe/H]=-0.1. However, recently,…
