Galactic Archeology with the AEGIS Survey: The Evolution of Carbon and Iron in the Galactic Halo
Jinmi Yoon, Timothy C. Beers, Sarah Dietz +6
Understanding the evolution of carbon and iron in the Milky Way's halo is of importance because these two elements play crucial roles constraining star formation, Galactic assembly…
The EMBLA Survey -- Metal-poor stars in the Galactic bulge
Louise M. Howes, Martin Asplund, Stefan C. Keller +14
Cosmological models predict the oldest stars in the Galaxy should be found closest to the centre of the potential well, in the bulge. The EMBLA Survey successfully searched for the…
Extremely metal-poor stars from the cosmic dawn in the bulge of the Milky Way
L. M. Howes, A. R. Casey, M. Asplund +22
The first stars are predicted to have formed within 200 million years after the Big Bang, initiating the cosmic dawn. A true first star has not yet been discovered, although stars…
Advanced Data Visualization in Astrophysics: the X3D Pathway
F. P. A. Vogt, C. I. Owen, L. Verdes-Montenegro +1
Most modern astrophysical datasets are multi-dimensional; a characteristic that can nowadays generally be conserved and exploited scientifically during the data reduction/simulatio…
The eclipsing binary HS0705+6700 and the search for circumbinary objects
D. Pulley, G. Faillace, D. Smith +1
HS0705+6700 (also identified as V470 Cam) is a short period (2.3 h) post common envelope detached eclipsing sdB binary system which exhibits transit time variations (TTVs) of a cyc…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: the most metal-poor stars in the Galactic bulge
L. Howes, M. Asplund, A. R. Casey +39
We present the first results of the EMBLA survey (Extremely Metal-poor BuLge stars with AAOmega), aimed at finding metal-poor stars in the Milky Way bulge, where the oldest stars s…
EL CVn-type binaries - Discovery of 17 helium white dwarf precursors in bright eclipsing binary star systems
P. F. L. Maxted, S. Bloemen, U. Heber +21
The star 1SWASP J024743.37-251549.2 was recently discovered to be a binary star in which an A-type dwarf star eclipses the remnant of a disrupted red giant star (WASP0247-25B). The…
Investigating the properties of the near contact binary system TW CrB
G. Faillace, C. Owen, D. Pulley +1
TW Coronae Borealis (TW CrB) is a binary system likely to be active showing evidence of starspots and a hotspot. We calculated a new ephemeris based on all available timings from 1…
