The Pristine survey VIII: The metallicity distribution function of the Milky Way halo down to the extremely metal-poor regime
K. Youakim, E. Starkenburg, N. F. Martin +15
The Pristine survey uses narrow-band photometry to derive precise metallicities down to the extremely metal-poor regime ([Fe/H] < -3), and currently consists of over 4 million FGK-…
A detailed non-LTE analysis of LB-1: Revised parameters and surface abundances
S. Simón-Díaz, J. Maíz Apellániz, D. J. Lennon +8
LB-1 has recently been proposed to be a binary system at 4 kpc consisting of a B star of 8 Msol and a massive stellar black hole of 70 Msol. This finding challenges our current the…
The Pristine Dwarf-Galaxy survey - II. In-depth observational study of the faint Milky Way satellite Sagittarius II
Nicolas Longeard, Nicolas Martin, Else Starkenburg +11
We present an extensive study of the Sagittarius II (Sgr II) stellar system using MegaCam g and i photometry, narrow-band, metallicity-sensitive Calcium H&K doublet photometry, aug…
The Pristine survey III: Spectroscopic confirmation of an efficient search for extremely metal-poor stars
K. Youakim, E. Starkenburg, D. S. Aguado +13
The Pristine survey is a narrow-band, photometric survey focused around the wavelength region of the Ca II H & K absorption lines, designed to efficiently search for extremely meta…
An equatorial ultra iron-poor star identified in BOSS
C. Allende Prieto, E. Fernandez-Alvar, D. S. Aguado +6
We report the discovery of SDSS J131326.89-001941.4, an ultra iron-poor red giant star ([Fe/H] ~ -4.3) with a very high carbon abundance ([C/Fe]~ +2.5). This object is the fifth st…
