Bright Metal-Poor Stars from the Hamburg/ESO Survey. II. A Chemodynamical Analysis

Timothy C. Beers, Vinicius M. Placco, Daniela Carollo +6

We obtain estimates of stellar atmospheric parameters for a previously published sample of 1777 relatively bright (9 < B < 14) metal-poor candidates from the Hamburg/ESO Survey. Th…

APOGEE Chemical Abundances of Globular Cluster Giants in the Inner Galaxy

Ricardo P. Schiavon, Jennifer A. Johnson, Peter M. Frinchaboy +27

We report chemical abundances obtained by SDSS-III/APOGEE for giant stars in five globular clusters located within 2.2 kpc of the Galactic centre. We detect the presence of multipl…

Chemical trends in the Galactic Halo with APOGEE data

E. Fernández-Alvar, L. Carigi, C. Allende Prieto +10

The galaxy formation process in the -Cold Dark Matter scenario can be constrained from the analysis of stars in the Milky Way's halo system. We examine the variation of chemical…

Observational Constraints on First-Star Nucleosynthesis. II. Spectroscopy of an Ultra Metal-Poor CEMP-no Star

Vinicius M. Placco, Anna Frebel, Timothy C. Beers +6

We report on the first high-resolution spectroscopic analysis of HE0020-1741, a bright (V=12.9), ultra metal-poor ([Fe/H] = -4.1), carbon-enhanced ([C/Fe] = +1.7) star selected fro…
