Chemical Evolution in the Carina Dwarf Spheroidal

A. Koch, E. K. Grebel, D. Harbeck +5

We present metallicities for 487 red giants in the Carina dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy that were obtained from FLAMES low-resolution Ca triplet (CaT) spectroscopy. We find a mean…

R-process and alpha-elements in the Galactic disk: Kinematic correlations

Andreas Koch, E. K. Grebel

Recent studies of elemental abundances in the Galactic halo and in the Galactic disk have underscored the possibility to kinematically separate different Galactic subcomponents. Co…

Spectroscopy of PNe in Sextans A, Sextans B, NGC 3109 and Fornax

Alexei Y. Kniazev, Eva K. Grebel, Alexander G. Pramskij +1

Planetary nebulae (PNe) and HII regions provide a probe of the chemical enrichment and star formation history of a galaxy from intermediate ages to the present day. We present the…

The Evolutionary History of Local Group Irregular Galaxies

Eva K. Grebel

Irregular (Irr) galaxies are gas-rich objects with recent or ongoing star formation. In absence of spiral density waves, star formation occurs largely stochastically. The scattered…

The luminosity function of Palomar 5 and its tidal tails

A. Koch, M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel +2

We present the main sequence luminosity function of the tidally disrupted globular cluster Palomar 5 and its tidal tails. For this work we analyzed imaging data obtained with the W…

The tidal perturbation of the low-mass globular cluster NGC 5466

M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel

The distribution of stars in the outer part of the sparse globular cluster NGC 5466 provides evidence for possible tidal mass loss after a recent disk-shock near the solar circle.
