The Imprint of Clump Formation at High Redshift. II. The Chemistry of the Bulge

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In Paper I, we showed that clumps in high-redshift galaxies, having a high star formation rate density (Σ _SFR ), produce disks with two tracks in the [Fe/H]–[ α /Fe] chemical space, similar to that of the Milky Way’s (MW’s) thin+thick disks.

The R-Process Alliance: Chemodynamically Tagged Groups. II. An Extended Sample of Halo r-process-enhanced Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Orbital characteristics based on Gaia Early Data Release 3 astrometric parameters are analyzed for ∼1700 r -process-enhanced (RPE; [Eu/Fe] > +0.3) metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] ≤ −0.8) compiled from the R -Process Alliance, the GALactic Archaeology with ...

Chemo-spectrophotometric evolution of spiral galaxies: I. The model and the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The chemical and spectro-photometric evolution of spiral galaxies is investigated with detailed models, making use of up-to-date ingredients (like metallicity dependent stellar properties) and a prescription for the star formation rate (SFR) justified ...

The AMBRE Project: Origin and evolution of sulfur in the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2021
Context. Sulfur is a volatile chemical element that plays an important role in tracing the chemical evolution of the Milky Way and external galaxies. However, its nucleosynthesis origin and abundance variations in the Galaxy are still unclear because the number of available stellar sulfur abundance measurements is currently rather small. Aims. The goal

Stellar Bars in Isolated Gas-rich Spiral Galaxies Do Not Slow Down

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Elongated bar-like features are ubiquitous in galaxies, occurring at the centers of approximately two-thirds of spiral disks in the nearby Universe. Due to gravitational interactions between the bar and the other components of galaxies, it is expected ...

Disentangling Stellar Age Estimates from Galactic Chemodynamical Evolution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Stellar ages are key for determining the formation history of the Milky Way, but are difficult to measure precisely. Furthermore, methods that use chemical abundances to infer ages may entangle the intrinsic evolution of stars with the chemodynamical ...

The Formalism of Milky-Way Antimatter-Domains Evolution

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
If baryosynthesis is strongly nonhomogeneous, macroscopic regions with antibaryon excess can be created in the same process from which the baryonic matter is originated. This exotic possibility can become real, if the hints to the existence of antihelium

The Galactic Bulge: A Review

open access: yes, 2007
The Milky Way is the only galaxy for which we can resolve individual stars at all evolutionary phases, from the Galactic center to the outskirt. The last decade, thanks to the advent of near IR detectors and 8 meter class telescopes, has seen a great ...

Evolution of lithium in the Milky Way halo, discs, and bulge [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
Abstract In this work, we study the Galactic evolution of lithium by means of chemical evolution models in the light of the most recent spectroscopic data from Galactic stellar surveys. We consider detailed chemical evolution models for the Milky Way halo, discs, and bulge, and we compare our model predictions with the most recent ...
