The age of the Galaxy's thick disk
S. Feltzing, T. Bensby
We discuss the age of the stellar disks in the solar neighbourhood. After reviewing the various methods for age dating we discuss current estimates of the age of both the thin and…
The Galactic Stellar Disc
S. Feltzing, T. Bensby
The study of the Milky Way stellar discs in the context of galaxy formation is discussed. In particular we explore the properties of the Milky Way disc using a new sample of about…
Stellar abundances and ages for metal-rich Milky Way globular clusters - Stellar parameters and elemental abundances for 9 HB stars in NGC6352
S. Feltzing, F. Primas, R. A. Johnson
[ABRIDGED] Metal-rich globular clusters provide important tracers of the formation of our Galaxy. Moreover, and not less important, they are very important calibrators for the deri…
Properties of the Milky Way stellar disks in the direction of the Draco dSph galaxy
Anna S. Arnadottir, Sofia Feltzing, Ingemar Lundstrom
We present the first results of a study where we determine the metallicity distribution function in the Galactic disks as a function of height above the Galactic plane. Observation…
Manganese trends in a sample of thin and thick disk stars. The origin of Mn
S. Feltzing, M. Fohlman, T. Bensby
CONTEXT: Manganese is an iron-peak element and although the nucleosynthesis path that leads to its formation is fairly well understood, it remains unclear which objects, SN II and/…
The Determination of Stellar Parameters of Giants in the Galactic Disks and Bulge
J. Byström, N. Ryde, S. Feltzing +2
Here, we present our on-going work on the determination of stellar parameters of giants in the Galactic Disks and Bulge observed with UVES on the VLT. We present some preliminarily…
