Chemical Abundances in Field Red Giants from High-Resolution H-Band Spectra using the APOGEE Spectral Linelist

Verne V. Smith, Katia Cunha, Matthew D. Shetrone +8

High-resolution H-band spectra of five bright field K, M, and MS giants, obtained from the archives of the Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO) Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS…

Lithium-rich stars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Sarah L. Martell, Matthew D. Shetrone

We report the discovery of 23 lithium-rich post-main-sequence stars, identified from moderate-resolution SDSS spectroscopy and confirmed with high-resolution spectra taken at the H…

Nucleosynthesis and the Inhomogeneous Chemical Evolution of the Carina Dwarf Galaxy

Kim Venn, Matthew Shetrone, Mike Irwin +12

The detailed abundances of 23 elements in nine bright RGB stars in the Carina dSph are presented based on high resolution spectra gathered at the VLT and Magellan telescopes. A sph…

Manganese in dwarf spheroidal galaxies

P. North, G. Cescutti, P. Jablonka +10

We provide manganese abundances (corrected for the effect of the hyperfine structure) for a large number of stars in the dwarf spheroidal galaxies Sculptor and Fornax, and for a sm…
