COMPLETE ELEMENT ABUNDANCES OF NINE STARS IN THE r-PROCESS GALAXY RETICULUM II

We present chemical abundances derived from high-resolution Magellan/Magellan Inamori Kyocera Echelle spectra of the nine brightest known red giant members of the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Reticulum II (Ret II). These stars span the full metallicity range of Ret II (−3.5 < [Fe/H] < −2). Seven o...
