The evolution of the Milky Way's thin disc radial metallicity gradient with K2 asteroseismic ages

Emma Willett, Andrea Miglio, J. Ted Mackereth +8

The radial metallicity distribution of the Milky Way's disc is an important observational constraint for models of the formation and evolution of our Galaxy. It informs our underst…

CNO dredge-up in a sample of APOGEE/Kepler red giants: Tests of stellar models and Galactic evolutionary trends of N/O and C/N

Fiorenzo Vincenzo, David H. Weinberg, Josefina Montalbán +8

Surface abundances of C, N, and O in red giants are affected by processed material mixed into the stars' convective envelopes. Using a sample of stars with elemental ab…

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…

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…

Age dissection of the Milky Way discs: red giants in the Kepler field

Andrea Miglio, Cristina Chiappini, Ted Mackereth +16

[Abridged] Ensemble studies of red-giant stars with exquisite asteroseismic, spectroscopic, and astrometric constraints offer a novel opportunity to recast and address long-standin…
