The Thirteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the SDSS-IV Survey MApping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory
SDSS Collaboration, Franco D. Albareti, Carlos Allende Prieto +335
The fourth generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV) began observations in July 2014. It pursues three core programs: APOGEE-2, MaNGA, and eBOSS. In addition, eBOSS cont…
Discovery of a Metal-Poor Field Giant with a Globular Cluster Second-Generation Abundance Pattern
J. G. Fernández-Trincado, A. C. Robin, E. Moreno +31
We report on detection, from observations obtained with the APOGEE spectroscopic survey, of a metal-poor ([Fe/H] dex) field giant star with an extreme Mg-Al abundance rati…
New ATLAS9 And MARCS Model Atmosphere Grids for the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE)
Sz. Mészáros, C. Allende Prieto, B. Edvardsson +8
We present a new grid of model photospheres for the SDSS-III/APOGEE survey of stellar populations of the Galaxy, calculated using the ATLAS9 and MARCS codes. New opacity distributi…
Determination of the Galactic Rotation Using Open Star Clusters: Preliminary Results
Peter M. Frinchaboy, Steven R. Majewski
The dark matter distribution of the Milky Way remains among the major unsolved problems about our home galaxy. The masses of other spiral galaxies can be determined from their rota…
Modeling the Tidal Tails of the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy
David R. Law, Steven R. Majewski, Kathryn V. Johnston +1
N-body simulations are used to model the tidal disruption of the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf galaxy with constraints set by the positions and velocities of M giants in the Sgr tidal ar…
Tidal Streams around External Galaxies
M. Pohlen, D. Martinez-Delgado, S. Majewski +3
We have the unique opportunity to observe and model nearby streams around the two large Local Group spirals Milky Way and M31 in great detail. However, the detection of streams aro…
