Abstract

Context. Copper is an element whose interesting evolution with metallicity is not fully understood. Observations of copper abundances rely on a very limited number of lines, the strongest are the Cu i lines of Mult. 1 at 324.7 nm and 327.3 nm which can be measured even at extremely low metallicities.
