Namaste Sergio,
Let me offer a bit more for your search. Take a look at the sapta rishi (saptarshi सप्तर्षि saptaṛṣi)
Visvamitra - Alpha Ursæ Majoris.
Jamadagni - Beta Ursæ Majoris.
Bharadvaja -Gamma Ursæ Majoris.
Gautama - Delta Ursæ Majoris.
Atri - Epsilon Ursæ Majoris.
Vasistha - Zeta Ursæ Majoris.
Kasyapa - Eta Ursæ Majoris.
You can also read just a snippet of the saptaṛṣi -s in the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, Sisu Brahmana. There is just a few mantra-s of were the saptaṛṣi -s can be found in the sadhu. This is not as robust as you need, but I add it as a data point.
The Mahabharata calls out thre saptaṛṣi in the adhi parva or sabha parva ( parva is a chapter or book, kanda कन्द) ; I will need to look this up to insure the correct parva.
So for a search , consider sapta rishi as your entry. I will look at some additional items for your consideration and post them when I find the pointers to other information.
