UVES Observations of QSO 0000−2620: Oxygen and Zinc Abundances in the Damped Lyα Galaxy atzabs = 3.3901 [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2000
Observations of the QSO 0000-2620 with the Ultraviolet-Visual Echelle Spectrograph at the 8.2 m ESO Kueyen telescope are used for abundance analysis of the damped Lyα system at zabs = 3.3901.

Metals in Star-forming Galaxies with KCWI. I. Methodology and First Results on the Abundances of Iron, Magnesium, and Oxygen

open access: goldThe Astrophysical Journal
Understanding the chemical enrichment of different elements is crucial to gaining a complete picture of galaxy chemical evolution. In this study, we present a new sample of 46 low-redshift, low-mass star-forming galaxies at M _* ∼ 10 ^8−10 M _⊙ along ...

Chemical abundances in Seyfert galaxies – VIII. Argon abundance estimates [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
ABSTRACT For the first time, the argon abundance relative to hydrogen abundance (Ar/H) in the narrow line region of a sample of Seyfert 2 nuclei has been derived. In view of this, optical narrow emission line intensities of a sample of 64 local Seyfert 2 nuclei (z < 0.25) taken from Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR7 and measured by the

Chemical abundances in active galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
ABSTRACT The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has proved to be a powerful resource for understanding the physical properties and chemical composition of star-forming galaxies in the local Universe. The SDSS population of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) remains as of yet less explored in this capacity.

Abundance ratios in dwarf elliptical galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017
We determine abundance ratios of 37 dwarf ellipticals (dEs) in the nearby Virgo cluster. This sample is representative of the early-type population of galaxies in the absolute magnitude range -19.0 < Mr < -16.0. We analyze their absorption line-strength indices by means of index-index diagrams and scaling relations and use the stellar population ...

Robust Data-driven Metallicities for 175 Million Stars from Gaia XP Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We derive and publish data-driven estimates of stellar metallicity [M/H] for ∼175 million stars with low-resolution XP spectra published in Gaia DR3.

The origin of diverse α-element abundances in galaxy discs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Spectroscopic surveys of the Galaxy reveal that its disc stars exhibit a spread in [α/Fe] at fixed [Fe/H], manifest at some locations as a bimodality.

Abundance Ratios in Dwarf Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2016
AbstractThe aim of this study is to determine abundance ratios and star formation histories (SFH) of dwarf ellipticals in the nearby Virgo cluster. We perform a stellar population analysis of 39 dEs and study them using index-index and scaling relations. We find an unusual behaviour where [Na/Fe] is under-abundant w.r.t.
