New Views on the Early Evolution of Oxygen in the Galaxy
We discuss results on the oxygen abundance in a sample of 23 metal-poor (-3.0≤ [Fe/H] ≤ -0.3) unevolved stars and one giant. High resolutionspectroscopy of OH lines in the near UV allowed us to trace the early evolution of oxygenversus metallicity. Contrary to previous expectations, we find that oxygen abundances derived from these low excitation
