Stellar populations with ELTs [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2005 The star formation, mass assembly and chemical enrichment histories of galaxies, and their present distributions of dark matter, remain encoded in their stellar populations. Distinguishing the actual distribution functions of stellar age, metallicity and kinematics at several locations in a range of galaxies, sampling across Hubble types and ...

The “Building Blocks” of Stellar Halos
Galaxies, 2017 The stellar halos of galaxies encode their accretion histories. In particular, the median metallicity of a halo is determined primarily by the mass of the most massive accreted object.

Light Elements in the Universe
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 Due to their production sites, as well as to how they are processed and destroyed in stars, the light elements are excellent tools to investigate a number of crucial issues in modern astrophysics: from stellar structure and non-standard processes at work

Astroserver – Research Services in the Stellar Webshop
Open Astronomy, 2017 A quick look at research and development in astronomy shows that we live in exciting times. Exoplanetary systems, supernovae, and merging binary black holes were far out of reach for observers two decades ago and now such phenomena are recorded routinely.

Looking into dark matter with asteroseismology
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 Dark matter remains as an elusive component of modern Cosmology. According to previous research, stellar physics observables can be affected by the presence of hypothetical dark matter particles, which can be produced or accreted into the stars.

DSPS: Differentiable stellar population synthesis
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 ABSTRACT Models of stellar population synthesis (SPS) are the fundamental tool that relates the physical properties of a galaxy to its spectral energy distribution (SED). In this paper, we present DSPS: a python package for SPS. All of the functionality in DSPS is implemented natively in the JAX library for automatic differentiation, and

Stellar Populations Across cD Galaxies [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006 Abstract We present preliminary long-slit spectroscopy of a sample of nearby cD galaxies recently observed with the William Herschel and GEMINI North and South Telescopes. So far, we have accumulated data for 27 cDs. More is being observed with the GEMINI telescopes, to create a statistically significant sample.
