Unusual abundance patterns across the Milky Way: Evident signatures of dissolving GC stars
APOGEE contains more than hundred thousands new giant stars. This enabled us to collected an unprecedented and homogeneous sample of giant stars with light...
Unveiling the inner Milky Way globular cluster system
A serious limitation in the study of the Galactic inner halo and bulge globular clusters has been the existence of large and differential extinction by...
Artificial intelligence techniques are increasingly used in our daily lives. They also play an important role in science, including astrophysics. I am...
