Cluster Ages to Reconstruct the Milky Way Assembly (CARMA). VI. The age-metallicity relation of in-situ clusters and the age of the Universe

Chiara Zerbinati, Davide Massari, Fernando Aguado-Agelet +11

Within the homogeneous framework for the derivation of GC ages defined by the CARMA collaboration, we focus on the clusters born in-situ in the MW. As they are the oldest among the…

Evidence of a massive accretion event 1.8 billion years before the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus merger

Davide Massari, Chiara Zerbinati, Cristiano Fanelli +15

The merger history of the Galaxy has been traced back firmly to redshift 2 (10 Billion years ago). While evidence for the existence of at least one more significant merger before t…

Is Liller 1 a building block of the Galactic bulge? -- Evidence with APOGEE

Anna Liptrott, Ricardo P. Schiavon, Andrew C. Mason +10

Liller 1 is a stellar system orbiting within the inner 0.8kpc of the Galactic centre, characterised by a wide spread in age and metallicity, indicating a high mass. Liller 1 has be…

Testable predictions of outside-in age gradients in dwarf galaxies of all types

Claire L. Riggs, Alyson M. Brooks, Ferah Munshi +4

We use a sample of 73 simulated satellite and central dwarf galaxies spanning a stellar mass range of to investigate the origin of their stellar age gra…

The APOGEE Value Added Catalogue of Galactic globular cluster stars

Ricardo P. Schiavon, Siân G. Phillips, Natalie Myers +17

We introduce the SDSS/APOGEE Value Added Catalogue of Galactic Globular Cluster (GC) Stars. The catalogue is the result of a critical search of the APOGEE data release 17 (DR17) ca…

The bimodal [Mg/Fe] versus [Fe/H] bulge sequence as revealed by APOGEE DR14

A. Rojas-Arriagada, M. Zoccali, M. Schultheis +5

The Galactic bulge has a bimodal metallicity distribution function: different kinematic, spatial, and, potentially, age distributions characterize the metal-poor and metal-rich com…

The Correlation Between Mixing Length and Metallicity on the Giant Branch: Implications for Ages in the Gaia Era

Jamie Tayar, Garrett Somers, Marc H. Pinsonneault +28

In the updated APOGEE-Kepler catalog, we have asteroseismic and spectroscopic data for over 3000 first ascent red giants. Given the size and accuracy of this sample, these data off…

Life and death of a hero - Lessons learned from modeling the dwarf spheroidal Hercules: an incorrect orbit?

M. Blana, M. Fellhauer, R. Smith +3

Hercules is a dwarf spheroidal satellite of the Milky Way, found at a distance of about 138 kpc, and showing evidence of tidal disruption. It is very elongated and exhibits a veloc…

WIYN Open Cluster Study LXII: Comparison of Isochrone Systems using Deep Multi-Band Photometry of M35

Ben Thompson, Peter Frinchaboy, Karen Kinemuchi +2

Current generation stellar isochrone models exhibit non-negligible discrepancies due to variations in the input physics. The success of each model is determined by how well it fits…
