Metallicity and -element Abundance Gradients along the Sagittarius Stream as Seen by APOGEE

Christian R. Hayes, Steven R. Majewski, Sten Hasselquist +27

Using 3D positions and kinematics of stars relative to the Sagittarius (Sgr) orbital plane and angular momentum, we identify 166 Sgr stream members observed by the Apache Point Obs…

The Diffuse Ionized Gas Halo of the Small Magellanic Cloud

Brianna M Smart, Lawrence M Haffner, Kat Barger +2

Observations with the Wisconsin H-alpha Mapper (WHAM) reveal a large, diffuse ionized halo that surrounds the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We present the first kinematic H-alpha s…

Spatial variations in the Milky Way disc metallicity-age relation

Diane K. Feuillet, Neige Frankel, Karin Lind +5

Stellar ages are a crucial component to studying the evolution of the Milky Way. Using Gaia DR2 distance estimates, it is now possible to estimate stellar ages for a larger volume…
