Extremely metal-poor stars in classical dwarf spheroidal galaxies: Fornax, Sculptor, and Sextans (vol 524, pg A58, 2010)

Pierre North, Martin Tafelmeyer, Pascale Jablonka

Direct detection of galaxy stellar halos: NGC 3957 as a test case

Frédéric Courbin, Martin Tafelmeyer, Pascale Jablonka

We present a direct detection of the stellar halo of the edge-on S0 galaxy NGC 3957, using ultra-deep VLT/VIMOS V and R images. This is achieved with a sky subtraction strategy based on infrared techniques. These observations allow us to reach unprecedente ...

Extremely metal-poor stars in classical dwarf spheroidal galaxies: Fornax, Sculptor, and Sextans

Pierre North, Martin Tafelmeyer, Pascale Jablonka

We present the results of a dedicated search for extremely metal-poor stars in the Fornax, Sculptor, and Sextans dSphs. Five stars were selected from two earlier VLT/Giraffe and HET/HRS surveys and subsequently followed up at high spectroscopic resolution ...

Dwarf Galaxies and Galaxy Halos : the First Stages of Galaxy Evolution

Martin Tafelmeyer

The various projects presented in this thesis contribute to the expansion of our knowledge and understanding of the fundamental processes involved in the formation of a galaxy and its stellar populations. For this purpose, two different techniques are appl ...

The NIR Ca II triplet at low metallicity Searching for extremely low-metallicity stars in classical dwarf galaxies

Martin Tafelmeyer, Pascale Jablonka

The NIR Ca II triplet absorption lines have proven to be an important tool for quantitative spectroscopy of individual red giant branch stars in the Local Group, providing a better understanding of metallicities of stars in the Milky Way and dwarf galaxies ...

Chemical composition of extremely metal-poor stars in the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Martin Tafelmeyer, Pascale Jablonka

Context. Individual stars in dwarf spheroidal galaxies around the Milky Way Galaxy have been studied both photometrically and spectroscopically. Extremely metal-poor stars among them are very valuable because they should record the early enrichment in the ...
