  • The galactic thick disk: an observational perspective 
    Reddy, B. E (Cambridge University Press, 2010-03)
    In this review, we present a brief description of observational efforts to understand the Galactic thick disk and its relation to the other Galactic components. This review primarily focused on elemental abundance patterns ...
  • Kinematics of Vega-like stars: Lifetimes and temporal evolution of circumstellar dust disks 
    Manoj, P; Bhatt, H. C (EDP Sciences, 2005-01)
    We have used the velocity dispersion as an age indicator to constrain the ages of a large sample of main sequence Vega-like stars in order to study the lifetimes and temporal evolution of the dust disks around them. We use ...
  • Searching for the metal-weak thick disc in the solar neighbourhood 
    Reddy, B. E; Lambert, D. L (Royal Astronomical Society, 2008-11)
    An abundance analysis is presented of 60 metal-poor stars drawn from catalogues of nearby stars provided by Arifyanto et al. and Schuster et al. In an attempt to isolate a sample of metal-weak thick disc stars, we applied ...
