Chemical and kinematical properties of Galactic bulge stars surrounding the stellar system Terzan 5
Davide Massari, A. Mucciarelli, F. R. Ferraro +8
As part of a study aimed at determining the kinematical and chemical properties of Terzan 5, we present the first characterization of the bulge stars surrounding this puzzling stel…
Cosmic-Lab: Chemical and kinematical properties of Blue Straggler stars in Galactic Globular Clusters
L. Lovisi
Blue straggler stars (BSSs) are brighter and bluer than the main-sequence (MS) turnoff and more massive than MS stars.Two scenarios for their formation have been proposed: collisio…
Chemical abundances of blue straggler stars in Galactic Globular Clusters
L. Lovisi
By using the high resolution spectrograph FLAMES@VLT we performed the first systematic campaign devoted to measure chemical abundances of blue straggler stars (BSSs). These stars,…
Another brick in understanding chemical and kinematical properties of BSSs: NGC 6752
L. Lovisi, A. Mucciarelli, E. Dalessandro +2
We used high-resolution spectra acquired with the multifiber facility FLAMES at the Very Large Telescope of the European Southern Observatory to investigate the chemical and kinema…
FLAMES and XSHOOTER spectroscopy along the two BSS sequences of M30
L. Lovisi, A. Mucciarelli, B. Lanzoni +3
We present spectroscopic observations acquired with FLAMES and XSHOOTER at the Very Large Telescope for a sample of 15 Blue Straggler Stars (BSSs) in the globular cluster (GC) M30.…
Fast rotating Blue Stragglers in the globular cluster M4
L. Lovisi, A. Mucciarelli, F. R. Ferraro +9
We have used high resolution spectra obtained with the spectrograph FLAMES at the ESO Very Large Telescope to determine the kinematical properties and the abundance patterns of 20…
