The structure and 3D kinematics of vela OB2 (2022)
Journal Article
Armstrong, J. J., Wright, N. J., Jeffries, R. D., Jackson, R. J., & Cantat-Gaudin, T. (2022). The structure and 3D kinematics of vela OB2. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 517(4), 5704 - 5720. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac3101

The kinematics of stars in OB associations can provide insights into their formation, dynamical evolution, and eventual fate. The low-mass stellar content of OB associations are sufficiently numerous as to provide a detailed sampling of their kinemat... Read More about The structure and 3D kinematics of vela OB2.

The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey: Implementation, data products, open cluster survey, science, and legacy (2022)
Journal Article
Wright, Jeffries, Abbas, U., Borsen-Koch, V., Villanova, S., Wright, N., …Bragaglia, A. (2022). The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey: Implementation, data products, open cluster survey, science, and legacy. Astronomy & Astrophysics, https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202243141

Context. In the last 15 years different ground-based spectroscopic surveys have been started (and completed) with the general aim of delivering stellar parameters and elemental abundances for large samples of Galactic stars, complementing Gaia astrom...

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 66, Article A120. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202243134

Context. The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey is an ambitious project designed to obtain astrophysical parameters and elemental abundances for 100 000 stars, including large representative samples of the stellar populations in the Galaxy, and a w...

Low mass young stars in the Milky Way unveiled by DBSCAN and Gaia EDR3. Mapping the star forming regions within 1.5 Kpc (2022)
Journal Article
Prisinzano, L., Damiani, F., Sciortino, S., Flaccomio, E., Guarcello, M., Micela, G., …Alcalá, J. (2022). Low mass young stars in the Milky Way unveiled by DBSCAN and Gaia EDR3. Mapping the star forming regions within 1.5 Kpc. Astronomy and Astrophysics, https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202243580

With an unprecedented astrometric and photometric data precision, Gaia EDR3 gives us, for the first time, the opportunity to systematically detect and map in the optical bands, the low mass populations of the star forming regions (SFRs) in the Milky...

The Gaia-ESO survey: Constraining evolutionary models and ages for young low mass stars with measurements of lithium depletion and rotation (2022)
Journal Article
Jeffries. (2022). The Gaia-ESO survey: Constraining evolutionary models and ages for young low mass stars with measurements of lithium depletion and rotation. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 5727-5751. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac1245

A growing disquiet has emerged in recent years that standard stellar models are at odds with observations of the colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) and lithium depletion patterns of pre-main sequence stars in clusters. In this work we select 1246 high... Read More about The Gaia-ESO survey: Constraining evolutionary models and ages for young low mass stars with measurements of lithium depletion and rotation.

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Chemical tagging in the thin disk. Open clusters blindly recovered in the elemental abundance space (2022)
Journal Article
Spina, L., Magrini, L., Sacco, G. G., Casali, G., Vallenari, A., Tautvaisiene, G., …Zaggia, S. (2022). The Gaia-ESO Survey: Chemical tagging in the thin disk. Open clusters blindly recovered in the elemental abundance space. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 668, Article ARTN A16. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202243316

Context. The chemical makeup of a star provides the fossil information of the environment where it formed. Under this premise, it should be possible to use chemical abundances to tag stars that formed within the same stellar association. This idea -...
