Journal Article
Yoon, J., Beers, T. C., Dietz, S., Lee, Y. S., Placco, V. M., Costa, G. D., …Sharma, M. (2018). Galactic Archeology with the AEGIS Survey: The Evolution of Carbon and Iron in the Galactic Halo. Astrophysical Journal, 861(2), Article 146. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/aaccea

Understanding the evolution of carbon and iron in the Milky Way's halo is of importance because these two elements play crucial roles in constraining star formation, Galactic assembly, and chemical evolution in the early universe. Here we explore the... Read More about Galactic Archeology with the AEGIS Survey: The Evolution of Carbon and Iron in the Galactic Halo.

Origins of carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars (2017)
Journal Article
Sharma, M., Theuns, T., Frenk, C. S., & Cooke, R. J. (2018). Origins of carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 473(1), 984-995. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stx2392

We investigate the nature of carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars in Milky Way (MW) analogues selected from the EAGLE cosmological hydrodynamical simulation. The stellar evolution model in EAGLE includes the physics of enrichment by asymptotic gia... Read More about Origins of carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars.
