Heavy elements Ba, La, Ce, Nd, and Eu in 56 Galactic bulge red giants

M. Van der Swaelmen, B. Barbuy, V. Hill +4

Aims. The aim of this work is the study of abundances of the heavy elements Ba, La, Ce, Nd, and Eu in 56 bulge giants (red giant branch and red clump) with metallicities ranging fr…

Globular clusters in the Galactic bulge

E. Bica, S. Ortolani, B. Barbuy

A view of the Galactic bulge by means of their globular clusters is necessary for a deep understanding of its formation and evolution. Connections between the globular cluster and…

The Hubble Space Telescope UV Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters. V. Constraints on Formation Scenarios

A. Renzini, F. D'Antona, S. Cassisi +16

We build on the evidence provided by our Legacy Survey of Galactic globular clusters (GC) to submit to a crucial test four scenarios currently entertained for the formation of mult…

Ghosts of Milky Way's past: the globular cluster ESO 37-1 (E 3)

R. de la Fuente Marcos, C. de la Fuente Marcos, C. Moni Bidin +2

Context. In the Milky Way, most globular clusters are highly conspicuous objects that were found centuries ago. However, a few dozen of them are faint, sparsely populated systems t…

Zinc abundances in Galactic bulge field red giants: implications for DLA systems

B. Barbuy, A. C. S. Friaca, C. R. da Silveira +6

Zinc in stars is an important reference element because it is a proxy to Fe in studies of damped Lyman-alpha systems, permitting a comparison of chemical evolution histories of bul…

The Hubble Space Telescope UV Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters. IV. Helium content and relative age of multiple stellar populations within NGC 6352

D. Nardiello, G. Piotto, A. P. Milone +14

In this paper we combine WFC3/UVIS F275W, F336W, and F438W data from the "UV Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters: Shedding Light on Their Populations and Formation" (GO-132…
