SpecDis: Value added distance catalogue for 4 million stars from DESI Year-1 data

Songting Li, Wenting Wang, Sergey E. Koposov +55

We present the SpecDis value added stellar distance catalog accompanying DESI DR1. SpecDis trains a feed-forward Neural Network (NN) with Gaia parallaxes and gets the distance esti…

Exploring the interaction between the MW and LMC with a large sample of blue horizontal branch stars from the DESI survey

Amanda Byström, Sergey E. Koposov, Sophia Lilleengen +42

The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is a Milky Way (MW) satellite that is massive enough to gravitationally attract the MW disc and inner halo, causing significant motion of the inner…

GD-1 Stellar Stream and Cocoon in the DESI Early Data Release

Monica Valluri, Parker Fagrelius, Sergey. E. Koposov +49

We present 115 new spectroscopically identified members of the GD-1 tidal stream observed with the 5000-fiber Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). We confirm the existence…

RomAndromeda: The Roman Survey of the Andromeda Halo

Arjun Dey, Joan Najita, Carrie Filion +50

As our nearest large neighbor, the Andromeda Galaxy provides a unique laboratory for investigating galaxy formation and the distribution and substructure properties of dark matter…

DESI Observations of the Andromeda Galaxy: Revealing the Immigration History of our Nearest Neighbor

Arjun Dey, Joan R. Najita, S. E. Koposov +45

We present DESI observations of the inner halo of M31, which reveal the kinematics of a recent merger - a galactic immigration event - in exquisite detail. Of the 11,416 sources st…

Overview of the DESI Milky Way Survey

Andrew P. Cooper, Sergey E. Koposov, Carlos Allende Prieto +62

We describe the Milky Way Survey (MWS) that will be undertaken with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) on the Mayall 4m telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory…

Astrochemistry with the Orbiting Astronomical Satellite for Investigating Stellar Systems (OASIS)

Jennifer B. Bergner, Yancy L. Shirley, Jes K. Jorgensen +14

Chemistry along the star- and planet-formation sequence regulates how prebiotic building blocks -- carriers of the elements CHNOPS -- are incorporated into nascent planetesimals an…

Preliminary Target Selection for the DESI Milky Way Survey (MWS)

Carlos Allende Prieto, Andrew P. Cooper, Arjun Dey +31

The DESI Milky Way Survey (MWS) will observe 8 million stars between mag, supplemented by observations of brighter targets under poor observing conditions. The s…

High-Resolution Near Infrared Spectroscopy of HD 100546: II. Analysis of variable rovibrational CO emission lines

Sean D. Brittain, Joan R. Najita, John S. Carr +3

We present observations of rovibrational CO in HD 100546 from four epochs spanning January 2003 through December 2010. We show that the equivalent widths of the CO lines vary durin…

The Herschel DIGIT Survey of Weak-line T Tauri Stars: implications for disk evolution and dissipation

Lucas A. Cieza, Johan Olofsson, Paul M. Harvey +8

As part of the "Dust, Ice, and Gas In Time (DIGIT)" Herschel Open Time Key Program, we present Herschel photometry (at 70, 160, 250, 350 and 500 micron) of 31 Weak-Line T Tauri sta…

Herschel Observations of the T Cha Transition Disk: Constraining the Outer Disk Properties

Lucas A. Cieza, Johan Olofsson, Paul M. Harvey +7

T Cha is a nearby (d = 100 pc) transition disk known to have an optically thin gap separating optically thick inner and outer disk components. Huelamo et al. (2011) recently report…

A Spitzer Survey of Mid-Infrared Molecular Emission from Protoplanetary Disks II: Correlations and LTE Models

C. Salyk, K. M. Pontoppidan, G. A. Blake +2

We present an analysis of Spitzer-IRS observations of H2O, OH, HCN, C2H2, and CO2 emission, and Keck-NIRSPEC observations of CO emission, from a diverse sample of T Tauri and Herbi…

Organic Molecules and Water in the Inner Disks of T Tauri Stars

John S. Carr, Joan R. Najita

We report high signal-to-noise Spitzer IRS spectra of a sample of eleven classical T Tauri stars. Molecular emission from rotational transitions of H2O and OH and ro-vibrational ba…

Time-Variable Accretion in the TW Hya Star/Disk System

J. A. Eisner, G. W. Doppmann, J. R. Najita +4

We present two epochs of observations of TW Hya from the high-dispersion near-IR spectrograph ARIES at the MMT. We detect strong emission from the Brackett gamma transition of hydr…

Formation of Water in the Warm Atmospheres of Protoplanetary Disks

A. E. Glassgold, R. Meijerink, J. R. Najita

The gas-phase chemistry of water in protoplanetary disks is analyzed with a model based on X-ray heating and ionization of the disk atmosphere. Several uncertain processes appear t…
