The R-Process Alliance: Chemo-Dynamically Tagged Groups of Halo -Process-Enhanced Stars Reveal a Shared Chemical-Evolution History

Dmitrii Gudin, Derek Shank, Timothy C. Beers +11

We derive dynamical parameters for a large sample of 446 -process-enhanced (RPE) metal-poor stars in the halo and disk systems of the Milky Way, based on data releases from the…

Detection of Pb II in the Ultraviolet Spectra of Three Metal-Poor Stars

Ian U. Roederer, James E. Lawler, Erika M. Holmbeck +8

We report the first detection of the Pb II line at 2203.534 Angstroms in three metal-poor stars, using ultraviolet spectra obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on…

The Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopic Survey (S5): Chemical Abundances of Seven Stellar Streams

Alexander P. Ji, Ting S. Li, Terese T. Hansen +16

We present high-resolution Magellan/MIKE spectroscopy of 42 red giant stars in seven stellar streams confirmed by the Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopic Survey (S5): ATLAS, Aliq…

A chemo-dynamical link between the Gjöll stream and NGC 3201

T. T. Hansen, A. H. Riley, L. E. Strigari +4

Recent analysis of the second data release of Gaia has revealed a number of new stellar streams surrounding the Milky Way. It has been suggested that one of these streams, Gjöll, i…

The -Process Alliance: Fourth Data Release from the Search for -Process-Enhanced Stars in the Galactic Halo

Erika M. Holmbeck, Terese T. Hansen, Timothy C. Beers +22

This compilation is the fourth data release from the -Process Alliance (RPA) search for -process-enhanced stars, and the second release based on "snapshot" high-resolution ($…

The R-Process Alliance: J1521-3538, a very metal-poor, extremely r-process-enhanced star with [Eu/Fe]=+2.2, and the class of r-III stars

Madelyn Cain, Anna Frebel, Alexander P. Ji +8

We report the discovery of J1521-3538, a bright (V=12.2), very metal-poor ([Fe/H]=-2.8) strongly r-process enhanced field horizontal branch star, based on a high-resolution, high s…
