Scientific paper

Bengt Gustafsson did pioneering work on the determination of the C, N and O abundances of stars in the early 1980s. Here, we present some preliminary results from an ongoing near-infrared (IR) study of these elements in bulge stars. The formation and evolution of the Milky Way bulge can be constrained by studying these types of elemental abundances. Due to the large and variable visual extinction in the line-of-sight towards the bulge, an analysis in the near-IR is preferred.
