The Sixteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: First Release from the APOGEE-2 Southern Survey and Full Release of eBOSS Spectra
Romina Ahumada, Carlos Allende Prieto, Andres Almeida +310
This paper documents the sixteenth data release (DR16) from the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys; the fourth and penultimate from the fourth phase (SDSS-IV). This is the first release of…
The Growing Importance of a Tech Savvy Astronomy and Astrophysics Workforce
Dara Norman, Kelle Cruz, Vandana Desai +26
Fundamental coding and software development skills are increasingly necessary for success in nearly every aspect of astronomical and astrophysical research as large surveys and hig…
Nonequilibrium oscillations, probability angular momentum, and the climate system
Jeffrey B. Weiss, Baylor Fox-Kemper, Dibyendu Mandal +2
Though the Boltzmann-Gibbs framework of equilibrium statistical mechanics has been successful in many arenas, it is clearly inadequate for describing many interesting natural pheno…
SDSS-IV MaNGA: Evidence for enriched accretion onto satellite galaxies in dense environments
Adam L. Schaefer, Christy Tremonti, Zachary Pace +9
We investigate the environmental dependence of the local gas-phase metallicity in a sample of star-forming galaxies from the MaNGA survey. Satellite galaxies with stellar masses in…
Resolved and Integrated Stellar Masses in the SDSS-IV/MaNGA Survey, Paper II: Applications of PCA-based stellar mass estimates
Zachary J. Pace, Christy Tremonti, Yanmei Chen +9
A galaxy's stellar mass is one of its most fundamental properties, but it remains challenging to measure reliably. With the advent of very large optical spectroscopic surveys, effi…
Resolved and Integrated Stellar Masses in the SDSS-IV/MaNGA Survey, Paper I: PCA spectral fitting & stellar mass-to-light ratio estimates
Zachary J. Pace, Christy Tremonti, Yanmei Chen +9
We present a method of fitting optical spectra of galaxies using a basis set of six vectors obtained from principal component analysis (PCA) of a library of synthetic spectra of 40…
Characterizing K2 Candidate Planetary Systems Orbiting Low-Mass Stars IV: Updated Properties for 86 Cool Dwarfs Observed During Campaigns 1-17
Courtney D. Dressing, Kevin Hardegree-Ullman, Joshua E. Schlieder +15
We present revised stellar properties for 172 K2 target stars that were identified as possible hosts of transiting planets during Campaigns 1-17. Using medium-resolution near-infra…
K2-291 b: A rocky super-Earth in a 2.2 day orbit
Molly R. Kosiarek, Sarah Blunt, Mercedes Lopez-Morales +43
K2-291 (EPIC 247418783) is a solar-type star with a radius of R_star = 0.899 0.034 R_sun and mass of M_star=0.934 0.038 M_sun. From K2 C13 data, we found one super-Eart…
K2-288Bb: A Small Temperate Planet in a Low-mass Binary System Discovered by Citizen Scientists
Adina D. Feinstein, Joshua E. Schlieder, John H. Livingston +23
Observations from the Kepler and K2 missions have provided the astronomical community with unprecedented amounts of data to search for transiting exoplanets and other astrophysical…
