We take advantage of the Gaia-ESO Survey iDR4 bulge data to search for abundance anomalies that could shed light on the composite nature of the Milky Way bulge. The alpha-elements (Mg, Si, and whenever available, Ca) abundances, and their trends with Fe abundances have been analysed for a total of 776 bulge stars. In addition, the aluminum abundances and their ratio to Fe and Mg have also been examined. Our analysis reveals the existence of low-alpha element abundance stars with respect to the standard bulge sequence in the [alpha/Fe] vs. [Fe/H] plane. 18 objects present deviations in [alpha/Fe] ranging from 2.1 to 5.3 sigma with respect to the median standard value. Those stars do not show Mg-Al anti-correlation patterns. Incidentally, this sign of the existence of multiple stellar populations is reported firmly for the first time for the bulge globular cluster NGC 6522. The identified low-alpha abundance stars have chemical patterns compatible with those of the thin disc. Their link with massive dwarf galaxies accretion seems unlikely, as larger deviations in alpha abundance and Al would be expected. The vision of a bulge composite nature and a complex formation process is reinforced by our results. The used approach, a multi-method and model-driven analysis of high resolution data seems crucial to reveal this complexity.
We present the first results of the EMBLA survey (Extremely Metal-poor BuLge stars with AAOmega), aimed at finding metal-poor stars in the Milky Way bulge, where the oldest stars should now preferentially reside. EMBLA utilises SkyMapper photometry t
We analyse the kinematics of $sim 2000$ giant stars in the direction of the Galactic bulge, extracted from the Gaia-ESO survey in the region $-10^circ lesssim ell lesssim 10^circ$ and $-11^circ lesssim b lesssim -3^circ$. We find distinct kinematic t
Abridged: We used the fourth internal data release of the Gaia-ESO survey to characterize the bulge chemistry, spatial distribution, kinematics, and to compare it chemically with the thin and thick disks. The sample consist on ~2500 red clump stars i
(Abridged) We analyzed the stellar parameters and radial velocities of ~1200 stars in five bulge fields as determined from the Gaia-ESO survey data (iDR1). We use VISTA Variables in The Via Lactea (VVV) photometry to obtain reddening values by using
The extensive stellar spectroscopic datasets that are available for studies in Galactic Archeaology thanks to, for example, the Gaia-ESO Survey, now benefit from having a significant number of targets that overlap with asteroseismology projects such
