The Heavy Metal Survey: The Evolution of Stellar Metallicities, Abundance Ratios, and Ages of Massive Quiescent Galaxies since z ∼ 2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the elemental abundances and ages of 19 massive quiescent galaxies at z ∼ 1.4 and z ∼ 2.1 from the Keck Heavy Metal Survey. The ultradeep LRIS and MOSFIRE spectra were modeled using a full-spectrum stellar population fitting code with variable

The Distribution of Alpha Elements in Andromeda Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present alpha to iron abundance ratios for 226 individual red giant branch stars in nine dwarf galaxies of the Andromeda (M 31) satellite system. The abundances are measured from the combined signal of Mg, Si, Ca, and Ti lines in Keck/DEIMOS medium-resolution spectra.

Segue 1: An Unevolved Fossil Galaxy from the Early Universe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present Magellan/MIKE and Keck/HIRES high-resolution spectra of six red giant stars in the dwarf galaxy Segue 1. Including one additional Segue 1 star observed by Norris et al. (2010), high-resolution spectra have now been obtained for every red giant

Comparative analysis of dietary iron deprivation and supplementation in a murine model of colitis

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, EarlyView.
Iron deficiency and anemia are frequent complications of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and patients are treated with oral iron supplements. To compare the outcome of iron‐deficiency or iron‐supplementation on the severity of inflammation, wild‐type mice were fed an iron‐deficient, iron‐adequate or iron‐supplemented diet.

The investigation of chemical abundance and ionized gas kinematics in IC4662 galaxy

open access: yesВісник Астрономічної школи, 2009
The investigation of HII region optical spectra of the BCD galaxy IC4662 is presented in this paper. Spectral data were obtained at ESO VLT. This spectra includes such bright emission lines as H_β 4861, OIII 4363, 4959, 5007 etc. During the research were

Barium abundance in the central part of the dSph Fornax galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We revisited barium abundance in a sample of giant stars in the dwarf spheroidal Fornax galaxy. Non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) synthesis was used to derive the barium abundance from two Ba II lines. Our new NLTE result for barium shows that in the range of metallicities from -1 to -0.5 the abundance of this element is almost the same as in ...

Nucleosynthesis: Stellar and Solar Abundances and Atomic Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Abundance observations indicate the presence of often surprisingly large amounts of neutron capture (i.e., s- and r-process) elements in old Galactic halo and globular cluster stars.

From cities to refuges for pollinators: Urban practices for enhancing pollinator habitats in changing landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
A framework for the support of pollinators in urban areas is developed here, based on five pillars: nesting, flower resources, artificial support, management and society acceptance, with additional key elements from science and society. Society should incorporate strategies for pollinators as in this framework by means of co‐planning with stakeholders,

Star formation and the interstellar medium in low surface brightness galaxies. I. Oxygen abundances and abundance gradients in low surface brightness disk galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1998
We present measurements of the oxygen abundances in 64 HII regions in 12 LSB galaxies. We find that oxygen abundances are low. No regions with solar abundance have been found, and most have oxygen abundances $\sim 0.5$ to 0.1 solar. The oxygen abundance appears to be constant as a function of radius, supporting the picture of quiescently and ...

Chemical Abundances of the Leo II Dwarf Galaxy

open access: yes, 2008
We use previously-published moderate-resolution spectra in combination with stellar atmosphere models to derive the first measured chemical abundance ratios in the Leo II dSph galaxy.
