The Twentieth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First All-Sky BOSS Spectra, eROSITA-SDSS-V Mapper Coordinated Observations, and a Preview of the Local Volume Mapper

SDSS Collaboration, Mojgan Aghakhanloo, David Aguilar +273

This paper presents the twentieth data release (DR20) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, the third data release of its fifth generation (SDSS-V). SDSS-V is a panoptic spectroscopy…

A Galactic Self-Portrait: Density Structure and Integrated Properties of the Milky Way Disk

Julie Imig, Jon A. Holtzman, Gail Zasowski +23

The evolution history of the Milky Way disk is imprinted in the ages, positions, and chemical compositions of individual stars. In this study, we derive the intrinsic density distr…

The Nineteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

SDSS Collaboration, Gautham Adamane Pallathadka, Mojgan Aghakhanloo +210

Mapping the local and distant Universe is key to our understanding of it. For decades, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has made a concerted effort to map millions of celestial…

Sloan Digital Sky Survey-V: Pioneering Panoptic Spectroscopy

Juna A. Kollmeier, Hans-Walter Rix, Conny Aerts +217

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-V (SDSS-V) is pioneering panoptic spectroscopy: it is the first all-sky, multi-epoch, optical-to-infrared spectroscopic survey. SDSS-V is mapping the s…

Anchoring Stellar Age Indicators: A Cross-Calibration of [C/N] and Gyrochronology Ages via the Age-Velocity-Dispersion Relation

Yuxi Lu, Marc H. Pinsonneault, Yuan-Sen Ting +4

Determining stellar ages is challenging, as it depends on other stellar parameters in a non-linear way and often relies on stellar evolution models to infer the underlying relation…

StarFlow: Leveraging Normalizing Flows for Stellar Age Estimation in SDSS-V DR19

Alexander Stone-Martinez, Jon A. Holtzman, Yuxi +6

Understanding the ages of stars is crucial for unraveling the formation history and evolution of our Galaxy. Traditional methods for estimating stellar ages from spectroscopic data…

Many elements matter: Detailed abundance patterns reveal star-formation and enrichment differences among Milky Way structural components

Emily J. Griffith, David W. Hogg, Sten Hasselquist +5

Many nucleosynthetic channels create the elements, but two-parameter models characterized by and Fe nonetheless predict stellar abundances in the Galactic disk to accuracies of…

A Tale of Two Disks: Mapping the Milky Way with the Final Data Release of APOGEE

Julie Imig, Cathryn Price, Jon A. Holtzman +24

We present new maps of the Milky Way disk showing the distribution of metallicity ([Fe/H]), -element abundances ([Mg/Fe]), and stellar age, using a sample of 66,496 red giant st…

The Seventeenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: Complete Release of MaNGA, MaStar and APOGEE-2 Data

Abdurro'uf, Katherine Accetta, Conny Aerts +337

This paper documents the seventeenth data release (DR17) from the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys; the fifth and final release from the fourth phase (SDSS-IV). DR17 contains the complete…

A Monte Carlo Method for Evaluating Empirical Gyrochronology Models and its Application to Wide Binary Benchmarks

Tomomi Otani, Ted von Hippel, Derek Buzasi +3

Accurate stellar ages are essential for our understanding of the star formation history of the Milky Way, Galactic chemical evolution, and to constrain exoplanet formation models.…

A Multi-Year Search For Transits Of Proxima Centauri. II: No Evidence For Transit Events With Periods Between 1-30 Days

Dax L. Feliz, David L. Blank, Karen A. Collins +13

Using a global network of small telescopes, we have obtained light curves of Proxima Centauri at 329 observation epochs from 2006 - 2017. The planet Proxima b discovered by Anglada…
