An abundance analysis of bright giants in the globular cluster NGC 1851
read the original abstract
We present the chemical compositions for eight bright giants in the globular cluster NGC 1851. Our analysis reveals large star-to-star abundance variations and correlations of the light elements O, Na, and Al, a feature found in every well studied globular cluster. However, NGC 1851 also exhibits large star-to-star abundance variations of the s-process elements Zr and La. These s-process elements are correlated with Al, and anticorrelated with O. Furthermore, the Zr and La abundances appear to cluster around two distinct values. A recent study revealed a double subgiant branch in NGC 1851. Our data reinforce the notion that there are two stellar populations in NGC 1851 and indicate that this cluster has experienced a complicated formation history with similarities to omega Centauri.

The complex stellar system M 22: constraining the chemical enrichment from AGB stars using magnesium isotope ratios
First Mg isotope measurements at [Fe/H]≈-2 in a globular cluster show no difference tied to s-process enrichment, favoring ~2.75 M_sun AGB polluters and a 280–480 Myr age gap.

The complex stellar system M 22: confirming abundance variations with high precision differential measurements
High-precision differential abundances confirm M 22 hosts a >0.24 dex iron spread and ~0.65 dex s-process spread, and reveal new internal abundance variations within each population.
