High-resolution spectroscopic study of extremely metal-poor stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud

W. S. Oh, T. Nordlander, G. S. Da Costa +2

We present detailed abundance results based on UVES high dispersion spectra for 7 very and extremely metal-poor stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud. We confirm that all 7 stars, tw…

Exploring the Galaxy's halo and very metal-weak thick disk with SkyMapper and Gaia DR2

G. Cordoni, G. S. Da Costa, D. Yong +16

In this work we combine spectroscopic information from the \textit{SkyMapper survey for Extremely Metal-Poor stars} and astrometry from Gaia DR2 to investigate the kinematics of a…

SkyMapper stellar parameters for Galactic Archaeology on a grand-scale

L. Casagrande, C. Wolf, A. D. Mackey +3

The SkyMapper photometric surveys provides uvgriz photometry for several millions sources in the Southern sky. We use DR1.1 to explore the quality of its photometry, and develop a…

The outer halo globular cluster system of M31 - III. Relationship to the stellar halo

Dougal Mackey, Annette Ferguson, Avon Huxor +10

We utilise the final catalogue from the Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey to investigate the links between the globular cluster system and field halo in M31 at projected radii $R…

The elusive stellar halo of the Triangulum Galaxy

B. McMonigal, G. F. Lewis, B. J. Brewer +7

The stellar halos of large galaxies represent a vital probe of the processes of galaxy evolution. They are the remnants of the initial bouts of star formation during the collapse o…
