GHOST commissioning science results - II: a very metal-poor star witnessing the early galactic assembly
This study focuses on Pristine_180956.78-294759.8 (hereafter P180956, [Fe/H] = -1.95 +/- 0.02), a star selected from the Pristine Inner Galaxy Survey (PIGS), and followed-up with the recently commissioned Gemini High-resolution Optical SpecTrograph (GHOST) ...
Oxford2024Small-amplitude Red Giants Elucidate the Nature of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch as a Standard Candle
Richard Irving Anderson, Nolan Wayne Koblischke
The tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) is an important standard candle for determining luminosity distances. Although several 105 small-amplitude red giant stars (SARGs) have been discovered, variability was previously considered irrelevant for the TRGB as ...
Bristol2024Gaia Data Release 3 Summary of the variability processing and analysis
Context. Gaia has been in operations since 2014, and two full data releases (DR) have been delivered so far: DR1 in 2016 and DR2 in 2018. The third Gaia data release expands from the early data release (EDR3) in 2020, which contained the five-parameter ast ...
EDP SCIENCES S A2023The Pristine Inner Galaxy Survey (PIGS) III: carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars in the bulge
Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo
The most metal-deficient stars hold important clues about the early buildup and chemical evolution of the Milky Way, and carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars are of special interest. However, little is known about CEMP stars in the Galactic bulge. In th ...
