Prospects for Galactic and stellar astrophysics with asteroseismology of giant stars in the Continuous Viewing Zones and beyond

J. Ted Mackereth, Andrea Miglio, Yvonne Elsworth +30

The NASA- mission presents a treasure trove for understanding the stars it observes and the Milky Way, in which they reside. We present a first look at the prospects for…

The contribution of N-rich stars to the Galactic stellar halo using APOGEE red giants

Danny Horta, J. Ted Mackereth, Ricardo P. Schiavon +13

The contribution of dissolved globular clusters (GCs) to the stellar content of the Galactic halo is a key constraint on models for GC formation and destruction, and the mass assem…

Evidence from APOGEE for the presence of a major building block of the halo buried in the inner Galaxy

Danny Horta, Ricardo P. Schiavon, J. Ted Mackereth +13

We report evidence from APOGEE for the presence of a new metal-poor stellar structure located within 4~kpc of the Galactic centre. Characterised by a chemical composition res…

Chronologically dating the early assembly of the Milky Way

Josefina Montalbán, John Ted Mackereth, Andrea Miglio +16

The standard cosmological model (-CDM) predicts that galaxies are built through hierarchical assembly on cosmological timescales. The Milky Way, like other disc galaxies…

The building blocks of the Milky Way halo using APOGEE and Gaia -- or -- Is the Galaxy a typical galaxy?

Ricardo P. Schiavon, J. Ted Mackereth, Joel Pfeffer +2

We summarise recent results from analysis of APOGEE/Gaia data for stellar populations in the Galactic halo, disk, and bulge, leading to constraints on the contribution of dwarf gal…

The Chemical Compositions of Accreted and {\it in situ} Galactic Globular Clusters According to SDSS/APOGEE

Danny Horta, Ricardo P. Schiavon, J. Ted Mackereth +16

Studies of the kinematics and chemical compositions of Galactic globular clusters (GCs) enable the reconstruction of the history of star formation, chemical evolution, and mass ass…

Age dating of an early Milky Way merger via asteroseismology of the naked-eye star Indi

William J. Chaplin, Aldo M. Serenelli, Andrea Miglio +81

Over the course of its history, the Milky Way has ingested multiple smaller satellite galaxies. While these accreted stellar populations can be forensically identified as kinematic…
