...Sodium, as an odd-Z light element, follows a similar trend but shows hints of more complex evolution, as has been previously noted in studies of sodium abundance as a function of metallicity (Bensby et al. 2017)....

...Additionally, for the first time, ages of large numbers of field stars are being determined with sufficient precision, at least within ' 2 kpc, to impose strong direct constraints on the Galactic star formation history (Ness et al. 2019; Bensby et al. 2017)....

...…are useful tracers of Galactic chemical evolution as they are believed to mainly come from one type of source, core-collapse supernovae (e.g. Arnett 1996; Woosley & Weaver 1995), even though some of them might have significant contributions from low-mass stars as well (e.g. Thielemann et al. 2002)....

...Na is partly made in massive stars, in the C-burning phase (e.g. Woosley & Weaver 1995), and partly from low-mass stars through the Ne-Na and Mg-Al cycles and mixed to the surface when ascending the red giant branch (e.g. Karakas 2010)....

...It is now widely believed that the bulge is a boxy peanut-shaped (e.g. Dwek et al. 1995; Wegg & Gerhard 2013) pseudo-bulge of a secular origin (Kormendy & Kennicutt 2004) rather than being a classical spheroid....
