CUBES: a UV spectrograph for the future
S. Covino, S. Cristiani, J. M. Alcala' +86
In spite of the advent of extremely large telescopes in the UV/optical/NIR range, the current generation of 8-10m facilities is likely to remain competitive at ground-UV wavelength…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Probing the lithium abundances in old metal-rich dwarf stars in the Solar vicinity
M. L. L. Dantas, G. Guiglion, R. Smiljanic +14
We test a scenario in which radial migration could affect the Li abundance pattern of dwarf stars in the solar neighbourhood. This may confirm that the Li abundance in these stars…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Old super-metal-rich visitors from the inner Galaxy
M. L. L. Dantas, R. Smiljanic, R. Boesso +12
We report the identification of a set of old super metal-rich dwarf stars with orbits of low eccentricity that reach a maximum height from the Galactic plane between ~0.5-1.5 kpc.…
The Gaia-ESO survey: mapping the shape and evolution of the radial abundance gradients with open clusters
L. Magrini, C. Viscasillas Vazquez, L. Spina +27
The spatial distribution of elemental abundances and their time evolution are among the major constraints to disentangle the scenarios of formation and evolution of the Galaxy. We…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Lithium measurements and new curves of growth
E. Franciosini, S. Randich, P. de Laverny +37
The Gaia-ESO Survey (GES) is a large public spectroscopic survey that was carried out using the multi-object FLAMES spectrograph at the Very Large Telescope. The survey provides ac…
The CUBES Science Case
Chris Evans, Stefano Cristiani, Cyrielle Opitom +51
We introduce the scientific motivations for the development of the Cassegrain U-Band Efficient Spectrograph (CUBES) that is now in construction for the Very Large Telescope. The as…
