The Gaia-ESO survey: Hydrogen lines in red giants directly trace stellar mass

Maria Bergemann, Aldo Serenelli, Ralph Schoenrich +27

Red giant stars are perhaps the most important type of stars for Galactic and extra-galactic archaeology: they are luminous, occur in all stellar populations, and their surface tem…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: the selection function of the Milky Way field stars

E. Stonkute, S. E. Koposov, L. M. Howes +26

The Gaia-ESO Survey was designed to target all major Galactic components (i.e., bulge, thin and thick discs, halo and clusters), with the goal of constraining the chemical and dyna…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Revisiting the Li-rich giant problem

A. R. Casey, G. Ruchti, T. Masseron +48

The discovery of lithium-rich giants contradicts expectations from canonical stellar evolution. Here we report on the serendipitous discovery of 20 Li-rich giants observed during t…
