Origins of the Thick Disk as Traced by the Alpha-Elements of Metal-Poor Giant Stars Selected from RAVE

Theories of thick disk formation can be differentiated by measurements of stellar elemental abundances. We have undertaken a study of metal-poor stars selected from the RAVE spectroscopic survey of bright stars to establish whether or not there is a significant population of metal-poor thick-disk st...
