On the use of field RR Lyrae as Galactic probes: IV. New insights into and around the Oosterhoff dichotomy
M. Fabrizio, V. F. Braga, J. Crestani +30
We discuss the largest and most homogeneous spectroscopic dataset of field RR Lyrae variables (RRLs) available to date. We estimated abundances using both high-resolution and low-r…
Chemical Compositions of Field and Globular Cluster RR~Lyrae Stars: II. omega Centauri
D. Magurno, C. Sneden, G. Bono +21
We present a detailed spectroscopic analysis of RR Lyrae (RRL) variables in the globular cluster NGC 5139 (omega Cen). We collected optical (4580-5330 A), high resolution (R = 34,0…
unVEil the darknesS of The gAlactic buLgE (VESTALE)
G. Bono, M. Dall'Ora, M. Fabrizio +55
The main aim of this experiment is to provide a complete census of old (t > 10 Gyr, RR Lyrae, type II Cepheids, red horizontal branch), intermediate age (red clump, Miras) and youn…
Milky Way metallicity gradient from Gaia DR2 F/1O double-mode Cepheids
Bertrand Lemasle, Gergely Hajdu, Valery Kovtyukh +8
The ratio of the first overtone (1O) / fundamental (F) periods of mixed-mode Cepheids that pulsate simultaneously in these two modes (F/1O) is metallicity-dependent. It can therefo…
On the chemical abundances of Miras in clusters: V1 in the metal-rich globular NGC 5927
V. D'Orazi, D. Magurno, G. Bono +50
We present the first spectroscopic abundance determination of iron, alpha-elements (Si, Ca and Ti) and sodium for the Mira variable V1 in the metal-rich globular cluster NGC 5927.…
A method to identify and characterise binary candidates - a study of CoRoT data
Ronaldo Da Silva, Adriana Silva-Valio
The analysis of the CoRoT space mission data was performed aiming to test a method that selects, among the several light curves observed, the transiting systems that likely host a…
