Detailed homogeneous abundance studies of 14 Galactic s-process enriched post-AGB stars: In search of lead (Pb)
Kenneth De Smedt, Hans Van Winckel, Devika Kamath +4
This paper is part of a larger project in which we systematically study the chemical abundances of Galactic and extragalactic post-asymptotic giant branch (post-AGB) stars. Lead (P…
New quasars behind the Magellanic Clouds. Spectroscopic confirmation of near-infrared selected candidates
Valentin D. Ivanov, Maria-Rosa L. Cioni, Kenji Bekki +7
Quasi--stellar objects (quasars) located behind nearby galaxies provide an excellent absolute reference system for astrometric studies, but they are difficult to identify because o…
The WISE View of RV Tauri Stars
I. Gezer, H. Van Winckel, Z. Bozkurt +4
We present a detailed study based on infrared photometry of all Galactic RV Tauri stars from the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS). RV Tauri stars are the brightest among…
Chemical abundance study of two strongly s-process enriched post-AGB stars in the LMC: J051213.81-693537.1 and J051848.86-700246.9
K. De Smedt, H. Van Winckel, D. Kamath +1
Context: This paper is part of a larger project in which we study the chemical abundances of extra-galactic post-AGB stars with the ultimate goal of improving our knowledge of the…
Optically Visible Post-AGB Stars, Post-RGB Stars and Young Stellar Objects in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Devika Kamath, Peter R. Wood, Hans Van Winckel
We have carried out a search for optically visible post-Asymptotic Giant Branch (post-AGB) stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). First, we selected candidates with a mid-IR ex…
