Red clump distances to the inner Galactic structures

C. Babusiaux, G. Gilmore

The least well known structure of the Galaxy is its central region, because of the high extinction, the crowding and the confusion between disk and bulge sources along the line of…

Chemical Abundances and Milky Way Formation

Gerry Gilmore, Rosemary F. G. Wyse

Stellar chemical element ratios have well-defined systematic trends as a function of abundance, with an excellent correlation of these trends with stellar populations defined kinem…

Chemical Evolution in the Carina Dwarf Spheroidal

A. Koch, E. K. Grebel, D. Harbeck +5

We present metallicities for 487 red giants in the Carina dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy that were obtained from FLAMES low-resolution Ca triplet (CaT) spectroscopy. We find a mean…

Galactic Structure and Evolution: a decade of surveys

Gerry Gilmore

Surveys of the local and distant Universe are the means to test and improve our models of galaxy formation. Substantial successes in the models are evident, while there is also con…

Mass Segregation in Young LMC Clusters

Richard de Grijs, Gerry F. Gilmore, Rachel A. Johnson

We present the detailed analysis of Hubble Space Telescope observations of the spatial distributions of different stellar species in two young compact star clusters in the Large Ma…

Optimising GAIA: How do we meet the science challenge?

Gerry Gilmore

GAIA has been approved to provide the data needed to quantify the formation and evolution of the Milky Way Galaxy, and its near neighbours. That requires study of all four key Gala…
