    The Pristine survey - VI. The first three years of medium-resolution follow-up spectroscopy of Pristine EMP star candidates
    We present the results of a 3-yr long, medium-resolution spectroscopic campaign aimed at identifying very metal-poor stars from candidates selected with the...
  • Publication
    The Pristine survey - VII. A cleaner view of the Galactic outer halo using blue horizontal branch stars
    We use the Pristine survey CaHK narrow-band photometry, combined with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS)ugr photometry, to provide a cleaner sample of blue...

    The Pristine Survey - VIII. The metallicity distribution function of the Milky Way halo down to the extremely metal-poor regime
    The Pristine survey uses narrow-band photometry to derive precise metallicities down to the extremely metal-poor regime ( [Fe/H] < -3), and currently consists...
  • Publication
    The Pristine survey - X. A large population of low-metallicity stars permeates the Galactic disc
    The orbits of the least chemically enriched stars open a window on the formation of our Galaxy when it was still in its infancy. The common picture is that...
  • Publication
    The Pristine survey - XII. Gemini-GRACES chemo-dynamical study of newly discovered extremely metal-poor stars in the Galaxy
    High-resolution optical spectra of 30 metal-poor stars selected from the Pristine survey are presented, based on observations taken with the Gemini Observatory...
  • Publication
    The Pristine survey - XIV. Chemical analysis of two ultra-metal-poor stars
    Elemental abundances of the most metal-poor stars reflect the conditions in the early Galaxy and the properties of the first stars. We present a spectroscopic...
  • Publication
    The Pristine survey - XIX. Cu and Zn abundances in metal-poor giants
    Metal-poor stars formed from a gas enriched by the ejecta of the explosion of one/few generations of first massive stars. With the Pristine photometry combined...

    The Pristine survey - XV. A CFHT ESPaDOnS view on the Milky Way halo and disc populations
    We present a one-dimensional, local thermodynamic equilibrium homogeneous analysis of 132 stars observed at high resolution with ESPaDOnS. This represents the...
  • Publication
    The Pristine survey - XVI. The metallicity of 26 stellar streams around the Milky Way detected with the STREAMFINDER in Gaia EDR3
    We use the photometric metallicities provided by the panoramic Pristine survey to study the veracity and derive the metallicities of the numerous stellar...
