The extremely low-metallicity tail of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy
Else Starkenburg, Vanessa Hill, Eline Tolstoy +10
We present abundances for seven stars in the (extremely) low-metallicity tail of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, from spectra taken with X-shooter on the ESO VLT. Targets wer…
The Star Formation & Chemical Evolution History of the Fornax Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy
T. J. L. de Boer, E. Tolstoy, V. Hill +6
We present deep photometry in the B,V and I filters from CTIO/MOSAIC for about 270.000 stars in the Fornax dwarf Spheroidal galaxy, out to a radius of r_ell\sim0.8 degrees. By comb…
A wide-area view of the Phoenix dwarf galaxy from VLT/FORS imaging
Giuseppina Battaglia, Marina Rejkuba, Eline Tolstoy +2
We present results from a wide-area photometric survey of the Phoenix dwarf galaxy, one of the rare dwarf irregular/ dwarf spheroidal transition type galaxies (dTs) of the Local Gr…
Nucleosynthesis and the Inhomogeneous Chemical Evolution of the Carina Dwarf Galaxy
Kim Venn, Matthew Shetrone, Mike Irwin +12
The detailed abundances of 23 elements in nine bright RGB stars in the Carina dSph are presented based on high resolution spectra gathered at the VLT and Magellan telescopes. A sph…
Manganese in dwarf spheroidal galaxies
P. North, G. Cescutti, P. Jablonka +10
We provide manganese abundances (corrected for the effect of the hyperfine structure) for a large number of stars in the dwarf spheroidal galaxies Sculptor and Fornax, and for a sm…
The Resolved Structure and Dynamics of an Isolated Dwarf Galaxy: A VLT and Keck Spectroscopic Survey of WLM
Ryan Leaman, Kim A. Venn, Alyson M. Brooks +7
We present spectroscopic data for 180 red giant branch stars in the isolated dwarf irregular galaxy WLM. Observations of the Calcium II triplet lines in spectra of RGB stars coveri…
