Chemodynamics of the Milky Way. I. The first year of APOGEE data
F. Anders, C. Chiappini, B. X. Santiago +38
We investigate the chemo-kinematic properties of the Milky Way disc by exploring the first year of data from the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE), an…
A new stellar chemo-kinematic relation reveals the merger history of the Milky Way disc
I. Minchev, C. Chiappini, M. Martig +27
The velocity dispersions of stars near the Sun are known to increase with stellar age, but age can be difficult to determine so a proxy like the abundance of alpha elements (e.g.,…
Chemical gradients in the Milky Way from the RAVE data. I. Dwarf stars
C. Boeche, A. Siebert, T. Piffl +20
Aim: We aim at measuring the chemical gradients of the elements Mg, Al, Si, and Fe along the Galactic radius to provide new constraints on the chemical evolution models of the Gala…
The relation between chemical abundances and kinematics of the Galactic disc with RAVE
C. Boeche, C. Chiappini, I. Minchev +20
Aims: We study the relations between stellar kinematics and chemical abundances of a large sample of RAVE giants in search for selection criteria needed for disentangling different…
The s-process in the Galactic halo: the fifth signature of spinstars in the early Universe?
Gabriele Cescutti, Cristina Chiappini, Raphael Hirschi +2
Very old halo stars were previously found to show at least four different abundance 'anomalies', which models of fast rotating massive stars (spinstars) can successfully account fo…
Galactic chemical evolution: The role of the first stars
Gabriele Cescutti, Cristina Chiappini
The massive First Stars (the first ones to contribute to the chemical enrichment of the Universe due to their short lifetimes) are long dead, and even though efforts to directly ob…
