PublicationThe Metal-poor non-Sagittarius (?) Globular Cluster NGC 5053: Orbit and Mg, Al, and Si Abundances
Metal-poor globular clusters (GCs) exhibit intriguing Al–Mg anti-correlations and possible Si–Al correlations, which are important clues to decipher the...

PublicationThe metal-rich halo tail extended in |z|: a characterization with Gaia DR2 and APOGEE
We report an analysis of the metal-rich tail ([Fe/H] > -0.75) of stars located at distances from the Galactic plane up to |z| ˜ 10 kpc, observed by the Apache...

PublicationThe metal-rich nature of stars with planets
With the goal of confirming the metallicity ``excess'' present in stars with planetary-mass companions, we present in this paper a high-precision spectroscopic...

PublicationThe Metallicity Distribution Functions of SEGUE G and K Dwarfs: Constraints for Disk Chemical Evolution and Formation
We present the metallicity distribution function (MDF) for 24,270 G and 16,847 K dwarfs at distances from 0.2 to 2.3 kpc from the Galactic plane, based on...

PublicationThe Metallicity Distribution of Intracluster Stars in Virgo
We have used the Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) to detect and measure ~5300 stars in a single intracluster field in the Virgo...

PublicationThe metallicity distributions in high-latitudes with SDSS
We present metallicities and their variations with different parameters for 36 high-latitude fields covering Galactic longitudes 0° < l ⩽ 360°. The...

PublicationThe metallicity gradient of M 33: chemical abundances of H ii regions
Context: We present spectroscopic observations of a sample of 72 emission-line objects, including mainly H ii regions, in the spiral galaxy M 33. Spectra were...

PublicationThe metallicity of Palomar 1
Palomar 1 is a peculiar Galactic globular cluster suspected of being younger than the bulk of Galactic halo objects. However, such a low age can be confirmed...
