In this study, over 2000 Milky Way stars were analyzed in the [Mg/Mn] vs [Al/Fe] chemical plane to identify accreted stars. The Milky Way's faster star formation enriches disk stars with iron-peak elements such as Mn and reduces alpha elements like Mg. Accreted stars, originating from slower star formation rate environments, exhibit lower metallicities, reflected in lower [Al/Fe]. The study ev
