Chemical Components in the Virgo Overdensity and Hercules–Aquila Cloud: Hints of More than One Merger Event in GSE-like Debris

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using elemental abundances for 1.26 million K giants in the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope DR8 value-added catalog, we analyze the chemical abundances of the Virgo Overdensity and Hercules–Aquila Cloud.

On the compact H II galaxy UM 408 as seen by GMOS-IFU: physical conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present Integral Field Unit GMOS-IFU data of the compact HII Galaxy UM 408, obtained at Gemini South telescope, in order to derive the spatial distribution of emission lines and line ratios, kinematics, plasma parameters, and oxygen abundances as well

Modeling the Ages and Chemical Abundances of Elliptical Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Spectroscopic studies of elliptical galaxies show that their stellar population ages, mean metallicity, and α enhancement traced by [Mg/Fe] all increase with galaxy stellar mass or velocity dispersion.

On the Abundances of Li, Be and O in Metal-Poor Stars in the Galaxy

open access: yes, 2005
Stellar atmospheres constitute excellent environments to study the chemical evolution of our Galaxy. The chemical composition of these atmospheres reflects the composition of the gas from where these stars were born.

Investigation of Substructures of the Inner Halo Using the StarGO Algorithm with APOGEE DR17

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We applied the Stars’ Galactic Origin algorithm in 7D space (i.e., [Fe/H], [Mg/Fe], [Al/Fe], L _z ,  J _r ,  J _z ,  E ) to analyze stars in the inner halo with APOGEE DR17.

Chemical Abundances in the Leiptr Stellar Stream: A Disrupted Ultra-faint Dwarf Galaxy?

open access: yes
Chemical abundances of stellar streams can be used to determine the nature of a stream's progenitor. Here we study the progenitor of the recently discovered Leiptr stellar stream, which was previously suggested to be a tidally disrupted halo globular ...

The High-Redshift Gas-Phase Mass–Metallicity Relation in FIRE-2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The unprecedented infrared spectroscopic capabilities of JWST have provided high-quality interstellar medium metallicity measurements and enabled characterization of the gas-phase mass–metallicity relation (MZR) for galaxies at z ≳ 5 for the first time ...

Classical Cepheids in the Galactic thin disk

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Classical Cepheids (CCs) have long been considered excellent tracers of the chemical evolution of the Milky Way’s young disk. We present a homogeneous, non-local thermodynamical equilibrium (NLTE) spectroscopic analysis of 401 Galactic CCs, based on 1351

The Actinide-boost Star LAMOST J122216.85–063345.2: A Detailed r-process Abundance Study with Gemini-S/GHOST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a detailed chemical-abundance analysis of an actinide-boost ( $\mathrm{log}\epsilon $ (Th/Dy) = –0.74) star, LAMOST J122216.85–063345.2 (J1222), a very metal-poor ([Fe/H] = –2.45) halo star with moderate enhancement in rapid neutron-capture ...

Chemical abundances in the nucleus of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy

open access: yes, 2017
Indexación: ScopusWe present iron, magnesium, calcium, and titanium abundances for 235 stars in the central region of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy (within 9:00∼70 pc from the centre) from medium-resolution Keck/Deep Imaging Multi-Object ...
