Abstract:

We will describe recent results from the use of multi-object spectroscopy with the 2dF and Autofib systems on the AAT. Specific examples include a sample of 700 carbon stars in the LMC, for which kinematic, composition and classification data are being derived, and samples of stars in the Carina and Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxies. The future prospects for this type of work will be discussed.
