METAL-POOR STARS OBSERVED WITH THE MAGELLAN TELESCOPE. III. NEW EXTREMELY AND ULTRA METAL-POOR STARS FROM SDSS/SEGUE AND INSIGHTS ON THE FORMATION OF ULTRA METAL-POOR STARS

We report the discovery of one extremely metal-poor (EMP; [Fe/H] < -3) and one ultra metal-poor (UMP; [Fe/H] < -4) star selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey/Sloan Extension for Galactic Understanding and Exploration survey. These stars were identified as EMP candidates based on their med...
