Metallicity estimates of Galactic Cepheids based on Walraven photometry
S. Pedicelli, J. Lub, J. W. Pel +13
We present new empirical and theoretical calibrations of two photometric metallicity indices based on Walraven photometry. The empirical calibration relies on a sample of 48 Cephei…
First Stars XI. Chemical composition of the extremely metal-poor dwarfs in the binary CS 22876--032
J. I. González Hernández, P. Bonifacio, H. -G. Ludwig +15
We have used high-resolution, high-S/N ratio spectra from the UVES spectrograph at the ESO VLT telescope. Long-term radial-velocity measurements and broad-band photometry allow us…
Cepheids as tracers of the metallicity gradient across the Galactic disk
B. Lemasle, A. Piersimoni, S. Pedicelli +4
We present iron abundance measurements, based on high resolution spectroscopy, and accurate distance determinations, based on near infrared photometry, for 34 Galactic Cepheids. Th…
Stroemgren metallicity calibration: the m1, b-y relation
A. Calamida, G. Bono, P. B. Stetson +15
We performed a new calibration of the Stroemgren metallicity index m1 based on the b-y color of cluster red giant stars. The current Metallicity-Index-Color relation is not linear…
First Stars VIII -- Enrichment of the neutron-capture elements in the early Galaxy
P. Francois, E. Depagne, V. Hill +12
Our aim is to measure accurate, homogeneous neutron-capture element abundances for the sample of 32 EMP giant stars studied earlier in this series, including 22 stars with [Fe/H] $…
Stroemgren photometry of Galactic Globular Clusters. I. New Calibrations of the metallicity index
A. Calamida, G. Bono, P. B. Stetson +15
We present a new calibration of the Stroemgren metallicity index m1 using red giant (RG) stars in 4 globular clusters (GCs:M92,M13,NGC1851,47Tuc) with metallicity ranging from [Fe/…
