对矮球状星系六分仪中的两颗新的极贫金属星星候选者进行了高分辨率光谱分析。这些目标是预先选定的中分辨率光谱中心周围的钙II三重态在近红外和后续的更高的分辨率与VLT/UVES。我们确认它们的金属丰度较低,[Fe/H] = −2.95和[Fe/H] = −3.01,这使它们成为六分仪座中已知最贫金属的恒星之一。测定了C、Na、α、Fe峰和中子俘获元素等18种元素的丰度。特别是,我们提出了第一个明确的检测锌在一个经典的矮星在极低的金属丰度。以前的迹象表明,与其他星系相比,六分仪座恒星在[Fe/H] δ − 3附近的丰度比非常分散,特别是观测到的[α/Fe]比值非常低。  我们利用这个机会重新分析了六分仪中EMPS的完整样本,发现了一个类似银河系的平台和一个固定金属丰度的0.2 dex色散。
We present the high-resolution spectroscopic analysis of two new extremely metal-poor star (EMPS) candidates in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Sextans. These targets were preselected from medium-resolution spectra centered around the Ca II triplet in the near-infrared and were followed-up at higher resolution with VLT/UVES. We confirm their low metallicities with [Fe/H] = −2.95 and [Fe/H] = −3.01, which place them among the most metal-poor stars known in Sextans. The abundances of 18 elements, including C, Na, theα, Fe-peak, and neutron-capture elements, are determined. In particular, we present the first unambiguous detection of Zn in a classical dwarf at extremely low metallicity. Previous indications were made of a large scatter in the abundance ratios of the Sextans stellar population around [Fe/H] ∼ − 3 when compared to other galaxies, particularly with very low observed [α/Fe] ratios. We took the opportunity of reanalyzing the full sample of EMPS in Sextans and find a [α/Fe] Milky Way-like plateau and a ∼0.2 dex dispersion at fixed metallicity.
