The MAGIC survey provides photometric metallicities for RGB stars over ~3000 deg² using CaHK narrow-band imaging plus DELVE g,r,i data, recovering 13/14 known ultra-faint dwarfs and confirming a distant Reticulum II member.

Discovery and classification of HE 1153-0518 as a new high-A(C) CEMP-no star among three EMP stars based on abundance patterns from high-resolution spectra.
Derives homogeneous n-capture element abundances for GBSv3 sample via iSpec spectral analysis and clustering for line selection, yielding measurements in agreement with literature.
High-precision analysis of TYC 6044-714-1 favors s+r nucleosynthesis over i-process models, which require implausible conditions and mismatch Ba isotopes.
C/N/O abundance patterns indicate that some α-rich young red giants are merger or mass-transfer products rather than genuinely young stars with anomalous chemistry.
New spectroscopic measurements of RGB stars in nine open clusters confirm mass-dependent extra-mixing processes and indicate that initial 17O and 18O abundances may vary.
