New Optical and Mid-Infrared RR Lyrae Period-Luminosity-Metallicity Relations for Precision Distances and Metallicity Distributions in the Magellanic Clouds

Clara E. Martínez-Vázquez, Joseph P. Mullen, Massimo Marengo +11

RR Lyrae (RRL) stars, thanks to the existence of their period-luminosity relations, have been widely used as primary standard candles within the Milky Way and the Local Group of ga…

Stellar Population Astrophysics (SPA) with the TNG. Beyond the iron peak: Galactic evolution of molybdenum, ruthenium and zirconium through open clusters

Natalia Alvarez-Baena, Valentina D'Orazi, Christopher Sneden +11

Context: Open clusters serve as key laboratories for studying the chemical evolution of the Milky Way. In particular, leveraging these coeval groups of stars to study elements beyo…

Stellar masses and ages in Gaia Data Release 4 from the Final Luminosity Age Mass Estimator algorithm

Orlagh L. Creevey, Laia Casamiquela, Yveline Lebreton +23

The masses and ages of stars are key quantities for understanding exoplanetary, stellar, and galactic evolution. In the context of Gaia, these parameters provide insights into the…

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…

New determination of abundances and stellar parameters for a set of weak G-band stars

A. Palacios, G. Jasniewicz, T. Masseron +3

Weak G-band (wGb) stars are very peculiar red giants almost devoided of carbon and often mildly enriched in lithium. Despite their very puzzling abundance patterns, very few detail…

On the alpha-element gradients of the Galactic thin disk using Cepheids

K. Genovali, B. Lemasle, R. da Silva +16

We present new homogeneous measurements of Na, Al and three alpha-elements (Mg, Si, Ca) for 75 Galactic Cepheids. The abundances are based on high spectral resolution (R ~ 38,000)…

On the metallicity distribution of classical Cepheids in the Galactic inner disk

K. Genovali, B. Lemasle, G. Bono +10

We present homogeneous and accurate iron abundances for almost four dozen (47) of Galactic Cepheids using high-spectral resolution (R40,000) high signal-to-noise ratio (S/N $…

Fundamental properties of the Population II fiducial stars HD 122563 and Gmb 1830 from CHARA interferometric observations

O. L. Creevey, F. Thévenin, T. S. Boyajian +17

We have determined the angular diameters of two metal-poor stars, HD 122563 and Gmb 1830, using CHARA and Palomar Testbed Interferometer observations. For the giant star HD 122563,…

Seismology and activity of the F type star HD 49933

Benoît Mosser, François Bouchy, Claude Catala +7

A 10-night asteroseismic observation programme has been conducted in January 2004 with the spectrometer Harps at the ES0 3.6-m telescope. The selected target, the 6th magnitude F5V…
