Search for Extremely Metal-poor Stars with Gemini-N/Graces. I. Chemical-abundance Analysis
We present stellar parameters and abundances of 13 elements for 18 very metal-poor (VMP; [Fe/H] < –2.0) stars, selected as extremely metal-poor (EMP; [Fe/H] < –3.0) candidates from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and Large sky Area Multi-Object Fiber ...

Chemical abundances and radial velocities in the extremely metal-poor galaxy DDO 68 [PDF]
We present chemical abundances and radial velocities of six HII regions in the extremely metal-poor star-forming dwarf galaxy DDO 68. They are derived from deep spectra in the wavelength range 3500 - 10,000 {\AA}, acquired with the Multi Object Double ...

Chemical abundances in Seyfert galaxies – X. Sulphur abundance estimates
ABSTRACT For the first time, the sulphur abundance relative to hydrogen (S/H) in the narrow-line regions of a sample of Seyfert 2 nuclei (Sy 2s) has been derived via direct estimation of the electron temperature. Narrow emission-line intensities from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 17 (DR17) [in the wavelength range 3000

High-resolution Chemical Abundances of the Nyx Stream
Nyx is a nearby, prograde, and high-eccentricity stellar stream physically contained in the thick disk, but its origin is unknown. Nyx could be the remnant of a disrupted dwarf galaxy, in which case the associated dark matter substructure could affect ...

Chemical Abundances of New Member Stars in the Tucana II Dwarf Galaxy [PDF]
We present chemical abundance measurements for seven stars with metallicities ranging from Fe/H] = −3.3 to [Fe/H] = −2.4 in the Tucana II ultra-faint dwarf galaxy (UFD), based on high-resolution spectra obtained with the MIKE spectrograph on the 6.5 m ...

The R-Process Alliance: Chemical Abundances for a Trio of r-process-enhanced Stars—One Strong, One Moderate, and One Mild [PDF]
We present detailed chemical abundances of three new bright (V ∼ 11), extremely metal-poor ([Fe/H] ∼ −3.0), r-process-enhanced halo red giants based on high-resolution, high-S/N Magellan/MIKE spectra.

Chemical abundances of 1111 FGK stars from the HARPS GTO planet search program. II. Cu, Zn, Sr, Y, Zr, Ba, Ce, Nd, and Eu [PDF]
To understand the formation and evolution of the different stellar populations within our Galaxy it is essential to combine detailed kinematical and chemical information for large samples of stars.

Chemical Abundances in our Galaxy and Other Galaxies Derived from H II Regions [PDF]
We discuss the accuracy of the abundance determinations of H II regions in our Galaxy and other galaxies. We focus on the main observational constraints derived from abundance determinations that have implications for models of galactic chemical evolution: a) the helium to hydrogen abundance ratio, He/H; b) the oxygen to hydrogen abundance ratio, O/H ...
