Chemodynamical evidence of the HR 1614 moving group as a bar resonance
Andreas J. Koch-Hansen, Vladislav Gulaev, Dominik H. Plonka +4
Moving groups (MGs) are ensembles of disk stars that clump in velocity and action space. A multitude of explanations as to their origin has been attempted, from dissolved star clus…
HRMOS: A High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph for the VLT
Laura Magrini, Thomas Bensby, Sofia Randich +174
This White Paper presents the scientific rationale and instrument concept for HRMOS (High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph), a next-generation instrument proposed for the ESO V…
RR Lyrae stars as probes of the outer Galactic halo: Chemical and kinematic analysis of a pilot sample
Gustavo E. Medina, Camilla J. Hansen, Ricardo R. Muñoz +4
We report the spectroscopic analysis of 20 halo ab-type RR Lyrae stars with heliocentric distances between 15 and 165 kpc, conducted using medium-resolution spectra from the Magell…
NLTE analysis of the methylidyne radical (CH) molecular lines in metal-poor stellar atmospheres
S. A. Popa, R. Hoppe, M. Bergemann +3
An analysis of the CH molecule in non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) is performed for the physical conditions of cool stellar atmospheres typical of red giants (log g = 2.0…
The CUBES Science Case
Chris Evans, Stefano Cristiani, Cyrielle Opitom +51
We introduce the scientific motivations for the development of the Cassegrain U-Band Efficient Spectrograph (CUBES) that is now in construction for the Very Large Telescope. The as…
Horizons: Nuclear Astrophysics in the 2020s and Beyond
H. Schatz, A. D. Becerril Reyes, A. Best +162
Nuclear Astrophysics is a field at the intersection of nuclear physics and astrophysics, which seeks to understand the nuclear engines of astronomical objects and the origin of the…
