Barium and europium abundances from the Gaia-ESO Survey using The Cannon

Pradosh Barun Das, Francesca Primas, Gayandhi De Silva +3

Neutron-capture element abundances encode the time-dependent interplay between slow (s-) and rapid (r-) nucleosynthetic processes and provide critical constraints on Galactic chemi…

Extremely metal-poor stars in the Fornax and Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxies

R. Lucchesi, P. Jablonka, Á. Skúladóttir +6

We present our analysis of VLT/UVES and X-shooter observations of six very metal-poor stars, including four stars at [Fe/H] in the Fornax and Carina dwarf spheroidal (…

The First Results of Distributed Peer Review at ESO Show Promising Outcomes

Tereza Jerabkova, Ferdinando Patat, Francesca Primas +5

The European Southern Observatory (ESO) implemented a new paradigm called Distributed Peer Review (DPR) as part of its proposal evaluation process in Period 110. Under DPR, Princip…

Lithium in NGC 2243 and NGC 104

Misa Aoki, Francesca Primas, Luca Pasquini +3

Our aim was to determine the initial Li content of two clusters of similar metallicity but very different ages, the old open cluster NGC 2243 and the metal-rich globular cluster NG…

Homogeneity in the early chemical evolution of the Sextans dwarf Spheroidal galaxy

R. Lucchesi, C. Lardo, F. Primas +10

We present the high-resolution spectroscopic analysis of two new extremely metal-poor stars (EMPS) candidates in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Sextans. These targets were pre-selecte…
