Tracing the stellar component of low surface brightness Milky Way Dwarf Galaxies to their outskirts I: Sextans
L. Cicuendez, G. Battaglia, M. Irwin +12
We present results from deep and very spatially extended CTIO/DECam and photometry (reaching out to 2 mag below the oldest MSTO and covering 20 deg) aroun…
The Pristine survey III: Spectroscopic confirmation of an efficient search for extremely metal-poor stars
K. Youakim, E. Starkenburg, D. S. Aguado +13
The Pristine survey is a narrow-band, photometric survey focused around the wavelength region of the Ca II H & K absorption lines, designed to efficiently search for extremely meta…
Zinc in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy
Ása Skúladóttir, Eline Tolstoy, Stefania Salvadori +2
From ESO VLT/FLAMES/GIRAFFE spectra, abundance measurements of Zn have been made in 100 individual red giant branch (RGB) stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy. Th…
The Pristine survey I: Mining the Galaxy for the most metal-poor stars
Else Starkenburg, Nicolas Martin, Kris Youakim +22
We present the Pristine survey, a new narrow-band photometric survey focused on the metallicity-sensitive Ca H & K lines and conducted in the northern hemisphere with the wide-fiel…
, a newly identified intermediate-age Milky Way stellar cluster: A spectroscopic study of 1
J. D. Simpson, G. M. De Silva, S. L. Martell +6
We confirm the reality of the recently discovered Milky Way stellar cluster 1 using spectra acquired with the HERMES and AAOmega spectrographs of the Anglo-Australi…
The power of teaming up HST and Gaia: the first proper motion measurement of the distant cluster NGC 2419
Davide Massari, Lorenzo Posti, Amina Helmi +2
Aims: We present the first measurement of the proper motion and orbit of the very distant and intriguing globular cluster NCG 2419. Methods: We have combined data from HST and Gaia…
Population gradient in Sextans dSph: Comprehensive mapping of a dwarf galaxy by Suprime-Cam
S. Okamoto, N. Arimoto, E. Tolstoy +5
We present the deep and wide and photometry of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) taken by Suprime-Cam imager on the Subaru Telescope, which extends out to the ti…
