OCCAM X. Neutron Capture Abundances with Keck/HIRES & Magellan/MIKE

Natalie R. Myers, Peter M. Frinchaboy, Henrique Reggiani +10

The chemistry of stars provides powerful insight into the history of the Milky Way. With multiple large-sky spectroscopic surveys that are currently available, using chemistry as a…

An Analytic Model for Stellar Metallicity Gradient Residuals in Cold, Phase-Mixed Galactic Disks

Shaunak Modak, Zoe Hackshaw, Keith Hawkins

The distribution of stellar metallicities over phase space in galactic disks is sculpted by both star formation and secular orbital transport processes. As a result, chemo-dynamica…

Mapping the Distant and Metal-Poor Milky Way with SDSS-V

Vedant Chandra, Phillip A. Cargile, Alexander P. Ji +28

The fifth-generation Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V) is conducting the first all-sky low-resolution spectroscopic survey of the Milky Way's stellar halo. We describe the stellar…

The accreted Galaxy: An overview of TESS metal-poor accreted stars candidates

Danielle de Brito Silva, Paula Jofré, Clare Worley +2

The Milky Way is a mosaic of stars from different origins. In particular, metal-poor accreted star candidates offer a unique opportunity to better understand the accretion history…

The Chemical Diversity of the Metal-Poor Milky Way

Nicole Buckley, Payel Das, Paula Jofré +2

We present a detailed study of the chemical diversity of the metal-poor Milky Way (MW) using data from the GALAH DR3 survey. Considering 17 chemical abundances relative to iron ([X…

A Detailed Chemical Study of the Extreme Velocity Stars in the Galaxy

Tyler Nelson, Keith Hawkins, Henrique Reggiani +3

Two decades on, the study of hypervelocity stars is still in its infancy. These stars can provide novel constraints on the total mass of the Galaxy and its Dark Matter distribution…

Open Cluster Chemical Homogeneity Throughout the Milky Way

Vijith Jacob Poovelil, G. Zasowski, S. Hasselquist +10

The chemical homogeneity of surviving stellar clusters contains important clues about interstellar medium (ISM) mixing efficiency, star formation, and the enrichment history of the…

In the Galactic disk, stellar [Fe/H] and age predict orbits and precise [X/Fe]

Melissa K. Ness, Kathryn V. Johnston, Kirsten Blancato +4

We explore the structure of the element abundance--age--orbit distribution of the stars in the Milky Way's low- disk, by (re-)deriving precise [Fe/H], [X/Fe] and ages, along wit…
