The Search for Multiple Populations in Magellanic Cloud Clusters II: The Detection of Multiple Populations in Three Intermediate-Age SMC Clusters

F. Niederhofer, N. Bastian, V. Kozhurina-Platais +14

This is the second paper in our series about the search for multiple populations in Magellanic Cloud star clusters using the Hubble Space Telescope. Here we report the detection of…

The Search for Multiple Populations in Magellanic Cloud Clusters I: Two Stellar Populations in the Small Magellanic Cloud Globular Cluster NGC 121

F. Niederhofer, N. Bastian, V. Kozhurina-Platais +14

We started a photometric survey using the WFC3/UVIS instrument onboard the Hubble Space Telescope to search for multiple populations within Magellanic Cloud star clusters at variou…

A comparative study of two 47 Tuc giant stars with different s-process enrichment

M. J. Cordero, C. J. Hansen, C. I. Johnson +1

Here we aim to understand the origin of 47 Tuc's La-rich star Lee 4710. We report abundances for O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Co, Ni, Zn, Y, Zr, Ba, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, and Eu…

AGB Sodium Abundances in the Globular Cluster 47 Tucanae (NGC 104)

Christian I. Johnson, Iain McDonald, Catherine A. Pilachowski +8

A recent analysis comparing the [Na/Fe] distributions of red giant branch (RGB) and asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6752 found that the rat…

Detailed Abundances for a Large Sample of Giant Stars in the Globular Cluster 47 Tucanae (NGC 104)

Maria J. Cordero, Catherine A. Pilachowski, Christian I. Johnson +3

47 Tuc is an ideal target to study chemical evolution and GC formation in massive more metal-rich GCs since is the closest, massive GC. We present chemical abundances for O, Na, Al…
