HRMOS: a very high-resolution, multi-object spectrograph for the ESO VLT
Andrea Bianco, Sofia Randich, Emma Fernandez Alvar +7
HRMOS (High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph) is a proposed new instrument for the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT) developed in the context of the ESO VLT Beyond 2030 call. It i…
HRMOS: A High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph for the VLT
Laura Magrini, Thomas Bensby, Sofia Randich +174
This White Paper presents the scientific rationale and instrument concept for HRMOS (High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph), a next-generation instrument proposed for the ESO V…
Exploring the Milky Way stellar disk. Carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, sulphur, potassium, and copper abundances for 714 F- and G-type dwarf stars in the solar neighbourhood
Thomas Bensby
[ABRIDGED] We aim to determine abundances of carbon, nitrogen, sulphur, potassium, and copper for 714 nearby F and G dwarf and subgiant stars, and to re-derive oxygen abundances us…
Dawn of the Milky Way disk: Determination of when a rotationally supported disk appears and dating the spin-up of the disk
Sofia Feltzing, Diane Feuillet, Thomas Bensby
Spiral galaxies, like the Milky Way, transform at some point in time into a rotationally supported system. Using an extant data-set consisting of 319 835 sub-giants from LAMOST wit…
A free-floating-planet microlensing event caused by a Saturn-mass object
Subo Dong, Zexuan Wu, Yoon-Hyun Ryu +39
A population of free-floating planets is known from gravitational microlensing surveys. None have a directly measured mass, owing to a degeneracy with the distance, but the populat…
Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40 m Telescope and the Science at Stake: Resolved Stellar Populations Studies in M31 and its Satellites
C. Gallart, E. Fernández-Alvar, A. B. A. Queiroz +48
A 30 m class optical/near-IR telescope in the Northern Hemisphere, equipped for diffraction-limited imaging and high-resolution, multi-object spectroscopy of faint stars, would ena…
