The Gaia-ESO Survey: Carbon abundance in the Galactic thin and thick disks
Mariagrazia Franchini, Carlo Morossi, Paolo Di Marcantonio +24
This paper focuses on carbon that is one of the most abundant elements in the Universe and is of high importance in the field of nucleosynthesis and galactic and stellar evolution.…
Systematic investigation of chemical abundances derived using IR spectra obtained with GIANO
E. Caffau, P. Bonifacio, E. Oliva +10
Detailed chemical abundances of Galactic stars are needed in order to improve our knowledge of the formation and evolution of our galaxy, the Milky Way. We took advantage of the GI…
Investigation of a sample of carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars observed with FORS and GMOS
E. Caffau, A. J. Gallagher, P. Bonifacio +5
Carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars represent a sizeable fraction of all known metal-poor stars in the Galaxy. Their formation and composition remains a significant topic of in…
A fork in the Sagittarius trailing debris
Camila Navarrete, Vasily Belokurov, Sergey E. Koposov +4
We take advantage of the deep and wide coverage of the VST ATLAS survey to study the line-of-sight structure of the Sagittarius stellar stream in the Southern hemisphere, only ~40°…
Gaia-ESO Survey: The analysis of high-resolution UVES spectra of FGK-type stars
R. Smiljanic, A. J. Korn, M. Bergemann +99
The Gaia-ESO Survey is obtaining high-quality spectroscopic data for about 10^5 stars using FLAMES at the VLT. UVES high-resolution spectra are being collected for about 5000 FGK-t…
Chemical abundances of metal-poor RR Lyrae stars in the Magellanic Clouds
Raoul Haschke, Eva K. Grebel, Anna Frebel +3
We present for the first time a detailed spectroscopic study of chemical element abundances of metal-poor RR Lyrae stars in the Large and Small Magellanic Cloud (LMC and SMC). Usin…
