GTC Follow-up Observations of Very Metal-Poor Star Candidates from DESI

Carlos Allende Prieto, David S. Aguado, Jonay I. González Hernández +48

The observations from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) will significantly increase the numbers of known extremely metal-poor stars by a factor of ~ 10, improving the…

The Pristine Inner Galaxy Survey (PIGS) VII: a discovery of the first inner Galaxy CEMP-r/s star

L. Mashonkina, A. Arentsen, D. S. Aguado +7

Well-studied very metal-poor (VMP, [Fe/H] < -2 ) stars in the inner Galaxy are few in number, and they are of special interest because they are expected to be among the oldest star…

Accurate Metallicities for Very Metal-Poor Stars from the Ca~II Infrared Triplet

Y. Osorio, D. S. Aguado, C. Allende-Prieto +2

The Ca~II H \& K lines are among the few features available to infer the metallicity of extremely metal-poor stars from medium-resolution spectroscopy. Unfortunately, these lines c…
