Abundance Patterns in Stars in the Bulge and Galactic Center
K. Cunha, V. Smith, K. Sellgren +3
We discuss oxygen and iron abundance patterns in K and M red-giant members of the Galactic bulge and in the young and massive M-type stars inhabiting the very center of the Milky W…
Chemical Abundances and Kinematics in Globular Clusters and Local Group Dwarf Galaxies and Their Implications for Formation Theories of the Galactic Halo
Doug Geisler, George Wallerstein, Verne V. Smith +1
We review Galactic halo formation theories and supporting evidence, in particular kinematics and detailed chemical abundances of stars in some relevant globular clusters as well as…
Chemical Abundances of Luminous Cool Stars in the Galactic Center from High-Resolution Infrared Spectroscopy
Katia Cunha, Kris Sellgren, Verne V. Smith +3
We present chemical abundances in a sample of luminous cool stars located within 30 pc of the Galactic Center. Abundances of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, calcium, and iron were derive…
Fluorine in a Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor Star
S. C. Schuler, K. Cunha, V. V. Smith +3
The fluorine abundance of the Carbon-Enhanced Metal-Poor (CEMP) star HE 1305+0132 has been derived by analysis of the molecular HF (1-0) R9 line at 2.3357 microns in a high-resolut…
Fraction of the radial velocity stable stars in the early observations of the Grid Giant Star Survey
Dmitry Bizyaev, Verne V. Smith
The GGSS is a partially-filled, all-sky survey to identify K-giant stars with low level of RV-variability. We study histograms of the radial velocity (RV) variability obtained in t…
