Selection of Metal‐poor Giant Stars Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Photometric System
Selection of Metal‐poor Giant Stars Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Photometric System
We present a method for the photometric selection of metal-poor halo giants from the imaging data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). These stars are offset from the stellar locus in the g-r versus u-g color-color diagram. Based on a sample of 29 candidates for which spectra were taken, …
