Red Supergiants as cosmic abundance probes: the first direct metallicity determination of NGC 4038 in the Antennae
C. Lardo, B. Davies, R-P. Kudritzki +5
We present a direct determination of the stellar metallicity in the close pair galaxy NGC~4038 (D = 20 Mpc) based on the quantitative analysis of moderate resolution KMOS/VLT spect…

Red Supergiant Stars as Cosmic Abundance Probes: KMOS Observations in NGC 6822
L. R. Patrick, C. J. Evans, B. Davies +5
We present near-IR spectroscopy of red supergiant (RSG) stars in NGC 6822, obtained with the new VLT-KMOS instrument. From comparisons with model spectra in the J-band we determine…
