Detailed chemical abundances of very metal-poor (VMP; [Fe/H] < -2) stars are important for better understanding the first stars, early star formation, and chemical enrichment of galaxies. Big on-going and coming high-resolution spectroscopic surveys provid ...
In order to measure tungsten isotopic composition in presolar stardust grains that contain a limited number of atoms, we developed a new three-photon three-color resonance ionization scheme using titanium:sapphire lasers and the Laser Ionization of Neutral ...
Evaluating the (dis)similarity of crystalline, disordered and molecular compounds is a critical step in the development of algorithms to navigate automatically the configuration space of complex materials. For instance, a structural similarity metric is cr ...
Measuring the isotopic composition of trace Zr in presolar stardust grains allows us to study the environment of slow neutron-capture nucleosynthesis in asymptotic giant branch stars. Here, we present a newly characterized Zr resonance ionization scheme th ...
We present our analysis of the FLAMES dataset targeting the central 25 ' region of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph). This dataset is the third major part of the high-resolution spectroscopic section of the ESO large program 171.B-0588(A) obtained ...
GEAR is a new fully parallel chemodynamical Tree/SPH code designed to study the formation and evolution of galaxies. GEAR treats the complex physics of baryons, such as radiative cooling and feedback, star formation, and chemical evolution. It has been ful ...
The PHANGS collaboration has been building a reference data set for the multiscale, multiphase study of star formation and the interstellar medium (ISM) in nearby galaxies. With the successful launch and commissioning of JWST, we can now obtain high-resolu ...
Carbides constitute a class of materials used for many applications, where excellent mechanical properties, such as stiffness, hardness and fracture toughness, are required. The machining industry is a typical example where carbide are crucial materials. W ...
Subglacial chemical weathering plays a key role in global silicate weathering budgets, contributing to the cycling of silicon (Si) in terrestrial and marine systems and the potential drawdown of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Here, we use data from tw ...
We present [C/Fe] and [N/Fe] abundance ratios and CH(lambda 4300) and S(lambda 3883) index measurements for 94 red giant branch (RGB) stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy from VLT/VIMOS MOS observations at a resolving power R = 1150 at 4020 A. Thi ...
