HIGH-RESOLUTION SPECTROSCOPIC STUDY OF EXTREMELY METAL-POOR STAR CANDIDATES FROM THE SKYMAPPER SURVEY

The SkyMapper Southern Sky Survey is carrying out a search for the most metal-poor stars in the Galaxy. It identifies candidates by way of its unique filter set which allows for estimation of stellar atmospheric parameters. The set includes a narrow filter centered on the Ca ii K 3933 Å line, enabli...
