Stellar population models based on the SDSS-IV MaStar library of stellar spectra. I. Intermediate-age/old models

C. Maraston, L. Hill, D. Thomas +14

We use the first release of the SDSS/MaStar stellar library comprising ~9000, high S/N spectra, to calculate integrated spectra of stellar population models. The models extend over…

The Fifteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: First Release of MaNGA Derived Quantities, Data Visualization Tools and Stellar Library

D. S. Aguado, Romina Ahumada, Andres Almeida +230

Twenty years have passed since first light for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Here, we release data taken by the fourth phase of SDSS (SDSS-IV) across its first three years o…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: local and global chemical abundance patterns in early-type galaxies

Taniya Parikh, Daniel Thomas, Claudia Maraston +6

Chemical enrichment signatures strongly constrain galaxy formation and evolution, and a detailed understanding of abundance patterns provides clues regarding the nucleosynthetic pr…

SDSS-IV MaStar -- A Large and Comprehensive Empirical Stellar Spectral Library: First Release

Renbin Yan, Yanping Chen, Daniel Lazarz +45

We present the first release of the MaNGA Stellar Library (MaStar), which is a large, well-calibrated, high-quality empirical library covering the wavelength range of 3,622-10,354A…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: The Spatially Resolved Stellar Initial Mass Function in 400 Early-Type Galaxies

Taniya Parikh, Daniel Thomas, Claudia Maraston +20

MaNGA provides the opportunity to make precise spatially resolved measurements of the IMF slope in galaxies owing to its unique combination of spatial resolution, wavelength covera…

Stellar population properties for 2 million galaxies from SDSS DR14 and DEEP2 DR4 from full spectral fitting

Johan Comparat, Claudia Maraston, Daniel Goddard +13

We determine the stellar population properties - age, metallicity, dust reddening, stellar mass and the star formation history - for all spectra classified as galaxies that were pu…

The Fourteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey and from the second phase of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment

Bela Abolfathi, D. S. Aguado, Gabriela Aguilar +344

The fourth generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV) has been in operation since July 2014. This paper describes the second data release from this phase, and the fourtee…

Carbon stars in the X-Shooter Spectral Library: II. Comparison with models

A. Gonneau, A. Lançon, S. C. Trager +6

In a previous paper, we assembled a collection of medium-resolution spectra of 35 carbon stars, covering optical and near-infrared wavelengths from 400 to 2400 nm. The sample inclu…

Single Stellar Populations in the Near-Infrared - I. Preparation of the IRTF spectral stellar library

S. Meneses-Goytia, R. F. Peletier, S. C. Trager +3

We present a detailed study of the stars of the IRTF spectral library to understand its full extent and reliability for use with Stellar Population (SP) modeling. The library consi…

Single stellar populations in the near-infrared II. Synthesis models

S. Meneses-Goytia, R. F. Peletier, S. C. Trager +1

We present unresolved single stellar population synthesis models in the near-infrared (NIR) range. The extension to the NIR is important for the study of early-type galaxies, since…
