Spectroscopic analysis of RGB stars in nine open clusters

Saulo de Oliveira Cantanhêde, Alan Alves-Brito, Rodolfo Smiljanic +4

Stellar clusters are crucial tools for studying the age, spatial distribution, dynamics, kinematics, and chemical composition of different Galactic stellar populations. In this wor…

Planet engulfment in the chemically anomalous HD 129171/HD 129209 pair

Anne Rathsam, Jorge Meléndez, Rodolfo Smiljanic +2

Binary systems composed of stars with similar parameters should have identical chemical composition. However, many chemically anomalous pairs have been found in the literature, suc…

Milky Way disc & Bulge in situ populations: ESO white paper - Expanding horizons call

M. Bergemann, G. Kordopatis, G. Casali +11

The formation and evolution of the Milky Way's disc, bar, and bulge remain fundamentally limited by the lack of a contiguous, Galaxy-wide, high-precision chemo-dynamical map. Key o…

Carbon and nitrogen as indicators of stellar evolution and age. A homogeneous sample of 44 open clusters from the Gaia-ESO Survey

G. Tautvaišienė, A. Drazdauskas, Š. Mikolaitis +11

Context. Low- and intermediate-mass giants undergo a complex chemical evolution that has yet to be observationally probed. The influence of core helium flash on the chemical compos…

Probing the origins. II. Unravelling lithium depletion and stellar motion: Intrinsic stellar properties drive depletion, not kinematics

M. L. L. Dantas, R. Smiljanic, D. Romano +4

In Paper I, we classified a stellar sample from the thin disc with a broad range in metallicity as being churned outward or inward, or blurred/undisturbed. In this paper (Paper II)…

Discovery of a pair of very metal-poor stars enriched in neutron-capture elements: The proto-disk r-II star BPS CS 29529-0089 and the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus r-I star TYC 9219-2422-1

A. R. da Silva, R. Smiljanic

R-process enhanced metal-poor stars (\EuFe and \FeH) are rare objects whose study can provide clues to the astrophysical sites of the rapid neutron capture proc…
