The 2Mass Color-magnitude Diagram of the Center of the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy: Photometric Measurements of a Surprisingly High Mean Metallicity
abundances stellar
2014/12/23
We present the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) (J−K, K) color-magnitude diagram for the region within 1◦ of the center of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy. Using the slope of the ...
Evidence for top-heavy stellar initial mass functions with increasing density and decreasing metallicity
formation mass-functionlatetype globular clusters general top-heavy stellar metallicity
2012/2/23
Residual-gas expulsion after cluster formation has recently been shown to leave an imprint in the low-mass present-day stellar mass function (PDMF) which allowed the estimation of birth conditions of ...
GRB091127/SN2009nz and the VLT/X-shooter spectroscopy of its host galaxy: probing the faint end of the mass-metallicity relation
Gamma-rays bursts: individual: GRB091127 – supernovae: individual: SN2009nz – Galaxies: ISM– Galaxies: evolution
2011/10/12
We perform a detailed study of the gamma-ray burst GRB091127/SN2009nz host galaxy at z=0.490 using the VLT/X-shooter spectrograph in slit and integral-field unit (IFU). From the analysis of the optica...
The Galactic dust-to-metals ratio and metallicity using gamma-ray bursts
Gamma-ray burst: general – ISM: abundances – dust, extinction – Galaxy: abundances – X-rays: ISM
2011/10/18
The metallicity and dust-to-metals ratio of the Galaxy are fundamental parameters in understanding the ISM, but there is still uncertainty surrounding these parameters. In this paper, the dust-to-meta...
Reddening and metallicity maps of the Milky Way Bulge from VVV and 2MASS. I.The method and minor axis maps
Galaxy: bulge - ISM: dust, extinction - stars: abundances
2011/10/18
We present a method to obtain reddening maps and to trace structure and metallicity gradients of the bulge using data from the recently started ESO public survey Vista Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV...
The metallicity distribution of bulge clump giants in Baade's Window
Galaxy: bulge – Galaxy: formation – Galaxy: abundances – Stars: abundances – Stars: atmosphere
2011/10/20
We seek to constrain the formation of the Galactic bulge by means of analysing the detailed chemical composition of a large sample of red clump stars in Baade's window. We measure [Fe/H] in a sample o...
Surveying the Agents of Galaxy Evolution in the Tidally-Stripped, Low Metallicity Small Magellanic Cloud (SAGE-SMC). I. Overview
Surveying Agents Galaxy Evolution Tidally-Stripped Small Magellanic Cloud
2011/10/13
The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) provides a unique laboratory for the study of the lifecycle of dust given its low metallicity (~1/5 solar) and relative proximity (~60 kpc). This motivated the SAGE-SM...
Star formation in self-gravitating disks in active galactic nuclei. I. Metallicity gradients in broad line regions
Star formation self-gravitating disks active galactic Metallicity gradients
2011/10/11
It has been suggested that the high metallicity generally observed in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and quasars originates from ongoing star formation in the self-gravitating part of accretion disks a...
The Age-Metallicity Relation in the Thin Disk of the Galaxy

2011/9/30
HST trigonometric distances, photometric metallicities, isochronic ages from the second revised version of the Geneva--Copenhagen survey, and uniform spectroscopic Fe and Mg abundances from our master...
The State of the Gas and the Relation Between Gas and Star Formation at Low Metallicity: the Small Magellanic Cloud
State Relation Between Gas Star Formation Metallicity: Magellanic Cloud
2011/9/30
We compare atomic gas, molecular gas, and the recent star formation rate (SFR) inferred from H-alpha in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). By using infrared dust emission and local dust-to-gas ratios, ...
Spectra of globular clusters in the Sombrero galaxy: evidence for spectroscopic metallicity bimodality
globular clusters: general galaxies: individual: Sombrero (M104: NGC4594) galaxies: star clusters
2011/9/28
We present a large sample of over 200 integrated-light spectra of confirmed globular clusters (GCs) associated with the Sombrero (M104) galaxy taken with the DEIMOS instrument on the Keck telescope. A...
The Metallicity Evolution of Interacting Galaxies
Metallicity Evolution Interacting Galaxies
2011/9/26
Nuclear inflows of metal-poor interstellar gas triggered by galaxy interactions can account for the systematically lower central oxygen abundances observed in local interacting galaxies. Here, we inve...
Anisotropic AGN Outflows and Enrichment of the Intergalactic Medium. II. Metallicity
cosmology — galaxies active — galaxies jets — intergalactic medium — methods
2010/11/15
We investigate the large-scale influence of outflows from AGNs in enriching the IGM with metals in a cosmological context. We combine cosmological simulations of large-scale structure formation with a...
The metallicity of gamma-ray burst environments from high energy observations
Gamma-ray burst general – Gamma-ray burst individual GRB050904 – early Universe – dark ages
2010/11/10
Context. Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and their early afterglows ionise their circumburst material. Only high-energy spectroscopy therefore, allows examination of the matter close to the burst itself. Soft...
Dust at sub-solar metallicity: the case of post-AGB stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Dust at sub-solar metallicity Large Magellanic Cloud
2010/11/11
Low- and intermediate-mass stars are one of the important dust sources in the interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies. The compositions of dust ejected from these stars are likely to affect those in the...
