VLT/FLAMES high-resolution chemical abundances in Sculptor: a textbook dwarf spheroidal galaxy
Vanessa Hill, Ása Skúladóttir, Eline Tolstoy +12
We present detailed chemical abundances for 99 red-giant branch stars in the centre of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, obtained from high-resolution VLT/FLAMES spectroscopy.…
Tracing the formation of the Milky Way through ultra metal-poor stars
Federico Sestito, Nicolas Longeard, Nicolas F. Martin +11
We use Gaia DR2 astrometric and photometric data, published radial velocities and MESA models to infer distances, orbits, surface gravities, and effective temperatures for all ultr…
Pristine Dwarf-Galaxy Survey I: A detailed photometric and spectroscopic study of the very metal-poor Draco II satellite
Nicolas Longeard, Nicolas Martin, Else Starkenburg +17
We present a detailed study of the faint Milky Way satellite Draco II (Dra II) from deep CFHT/MegaCam broadband and photometry and narrow-band metallicity-sensitive CaHK ob…
MORGOTH: incorporating horizontal branch modelling into star formation history determinations
A. Savino, T. J. L. de Boer, M. Salaris +1
We present a new method that incorporates the horizontal branch morphology into synthetic colour-magnitude diagram based star formation history determinations. This method, we call…
Stellar chemo-kinematics of the Cetus dwarf spheroidal galaxy
S. Taibi, G. Battaglia, N. Kacharov +6
In order to minimize environmental effects and gain an insight into the internal mechanisms that shape the properties of the early-type dwarf systems, we study one of the few isola…
