Chemical Cartography with APOGEE: Large-scale Mean Metallicity Maps of the Milky Way

Michael R. Hayden, Jon A. Holtzman, Jo Bovy +27

We present Galactic mean metallicity maps derived from the first year of the SDSS-III APOGEE experiment. Mean abundances in different zones of Galactocentric radius (0 < R < 15 kpc…

Helium enhanced stars and multiple populations along the horizontal branch of NGC2808: direct spectroscopic measurements

A. F. Marino, A. P. Milone, N. Przybilla +15

We present an abundance analysis of 96 horizontal branch (HB) stars in NGC2808, a globular cluster exhibiting a complex multiple stellar population pattern. These stars are distrib…
