    The Pristine survey - III. Spectroscopic confirmation of an efficient search for extremely metal-poor stars
    The Pristine survey is a narrow-band, photometric survey focused around the wavelength region of the Ca II H&K absorption lines, designed to efficiently search...

    The Pristine survey - IX. CFHT ESPaDOnS spectroscopic analysis of 115 bright metal-poor candidate stars
    A chemo-dynamical analysis of 115 metal-poor candidate stars selected from the narrow-band Pristine photometric survey is presented based on CFHT high...

    The Pristine survey - V. A bright star sample observed with SOPHIE
    With the aim of probing the properties of the bright end of the Pristine survey and its effectiveness in selecting metal-poor stars, we selected a sample of...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...
