Galactic Archeology - requirements on survey spectrographs
Sofia Feltzing
Galactic Archeology is about exploring the Milky Way as a galaxy by, mainly, using its (old) stars as tracers of past events and thus figure out the formation and evolution of our…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: a quiescent Milky Way with no significant dark/stellar accreted disc
G. R. Ruchti, J. I. Read, S. Feltzing +26
According to our current cosmological model, galaxies like the Milky Way are expected to experience many mergers over their lifetimes. The most massive of the merging galaxies will…
Testing the chemical tagging technique with open clusters
S. Blanco-Cuaresma, C. Soubiran, U. Heiter +12
Context. Stars are born together from giant molecular clouds and, if we assume that the priors were chemically homogeneous and well-mixed, we expect them to share the same chemical…
An inefficient dwarf: Chemical abundances and the evolution of the Ursa Minor dwarf spheroidal galaxy
Ugur Ural, Gabriele Cescutti, Andreas Koch +3
We present detailed chemical element abundance ratios of 17 elements in three metal poor stars in the Ursa Minor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, which we combine with extant data from the…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: A globular cluster escapee in the Galactic halo
K. Lind, S. E. Koposov, C. Battistini +37
A small fraction of the halo field is made up of stars that share the light element (Z<=13) anomalies characteristic of second generation globular cluster (GC) stars. The ejected s…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Tracing interstellar extinction
M. Schultheis, G. Kordopatis, A. Recio-Blanco +19
Large spectroscopic surveys have enabled in the recent years the computation of three-dimensional interstellar extinction maps thanks to accurate stellar atmospheric parameters and…
