A-G star metallicity
The Edinburgh-Cape Blue Object Survey is an ongoing project to identify and analyse a large sample of hot stars selected initially on the basis of photographic colours (down to... -
Metallicities for 10861062 stars
The third Gaia Data Release, which includes BP/RP spectra for 219 million sources, has opened a new window in the exploration of the chemical history and evolution of the Milky... -
Evolutionary models of Population II stars
The models are calculated for different chemical compositions both without overshooting (standard models, including microscopic diffusion of He and heavy elements) and with... -
COMBS III
The characteristics of the stellar populations in the Galactic bulge inform and constrain the Milky Way's formation and evolution. The metal-poor population is particularly... -
The Pristine survey XI: the FORS2 sample
Extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars are old objects that mostly formed very early after the big bang. They are rare and, to select them, we have to rely on low-resolution... -
The Pristine survey. IX.
A chemo-dynamical analysis of 115 metal-poor candidate stars selected from the narrow-band Pristine photometric survey is presented based on CFHT high-resolution ESPaDOnS... -
Extremely metal-poor stars in SkyMapper DR1.1
We present and discuss the results of a search for extremely metal-poor stars based on photometry from data release DR1.1 of the SkyMapper imaging survey of the southern sky. In... -
COMBS survey. Galactic Bulge metal-poor stars
Chemistry and kinematic studies can determine the origins of stellar population across the Milky Way. The metallicity distribution function of the bulge indicates that it... -
A bright star sample observed with SOPHIE
With the aim of probing the properties of the bright end of the Pristine survey and its effectiveness in selecting metal-poor stars, we selected a sample of bright candidate... -
Spectroscopy of extremely metal-poor stars
We present results from the analysis of high-resolution spectra obtained with the Keck HIRES spectrograph for a sample of 17 candidate extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars... -
New L subdwarfs, population properties
We present 27 new L subdwarfs and classify five of them as esdL and 22 as sdL. Our L subdwarf candidates were selected with the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey and Sloan Digital... -
EMBLA survey. Galactic bulge metal-poor stars
Cosmological models predict the oldest stars in the Galaxy should be found closest to the centre of the potential well, in the bulge. The Extremely Metal-poor BuLge stars with... -
WISE view of RV Tauri stars
We present a detailed study based on infrared (IR) photometry of all Galactic RV Tauri stars from the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS). RV Tauri stars are the... -
Short-period variables near Galactic Centre
We report the result of our near-infrared survey of short-period variable stars (P<60d) in a field of view of 20'x30' towards the Galactic Centre (GC). Forty-five variables... -
SAGA extremely metal-poor stars
We discuss the characteristics of known extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars in the Galaxy using the Stellar Abundances for Galactic Archaeology (SAGA) data base. We find the... -
Radial velocities of red giants in {omega} Cen
We present the results of a survey of radial velocities over a wide region extending from r~=10 out to 80' (~1.5 tidal radii) within the massive star cluster omega Centauri... -
Catalogue of RR Lyrae from NSVS
A search for RR Lyrae stars has been conducted in the publicly available data of the Northern Sky Variability Survey. Candidates have been selected by the statistical properties... -
Radial velocities of Pop. II stars
The Population II radial velocity measurement programme was carried out in 1988-1993. Metal-deficient stars, components of Population II visual binaries or common proper motion... -
Classification of Population II stars
The astrophysical parameters compiled from literature for 809 stars of different types, mainly Population II stars, are presented. The results of classification in the Vilnius... -
Rare earth abundances
We have derived new abundances of the rare earth elements Pr, Dy, Tm, Yb, and Lu for the solar photosphere and for five very metal-poor, neutron-capture r-process-rich giant...
