Chemical Abundances in the Nuclear Star Cluster of the Milky Way: Alpha-element Trends and Their Similarities with the Inner Bulge

Chemical Abundances in the Nuclear Star Cluster of the Milky Way: Alpha-element Trends and Their Similarities with the Inner Bulge

Chemical characterization of the Galactic center is essential for understanding its formation and structural evolution. Trends of alpha ( α ) elements, such as magnesium, silicon, and calcium, serve as powerful diagnostic tools, offering insights into star formation rates and gas-infall history. How...
