Discovery of four Narrow-line Type-1 Quasars at z = 2.54 -- 6.06 with Subaru 'Onohi'ula PFS-SSP
Ayumi Takahashi, Yoshiki Matsuoka, Yoshiki Toba +21
We report the discovery of four narrow-line type-1 quasars (NLQ1s) from the Subaru 'Onohi'ula Prime Focus Spectrograph Subaru Strategic Program (PFS-SSP). To extend a comprehensive…
High-Precision Near-Infrared Abundances of Solar Analogs in the YJ Bands
Noriyuki Matsunaga, Takuji Tsujimoto, Daisuke Taniguchi +12
We present a near-infrared abundance analysis of 46 solar analogs with known ages, observed with the WINERED WIDE-mode spectrograph at a resolution of . Using an e…
Kinematical and dynamical properties of recently discovered bulge and disc star clusters with WINERED
Ilaria Petralia, Dante Minniti, José G. Fernández-Trincado +8
Context. Galactic globular clusters are a very important tool in explaining the characteristics of the Milky Way. Therefore it is essential to determine the kinematical and dynamic…
Discovery of WINERED-HVS1: A metal-rich hyper-velocity star candidate ejected from the Galactic center
Kohei Hattori, Daisuke Taniguchi, Takuji Tsujimoto +4
We report the discovery of a metal-rich red giant star, WINERED-HVS1, which is a candidate for a hyper-velocity star (HVS). Its past trajectory suggests that this star may have bee…
First Result for Dark Matter Search by WINERED
Wen Yin, Taiki Bessho, Yuji Ikeda +10
The identity of dark matter has been a mystery in astronomy, cosmology, and particle theory for about a century. Bessho, Ikeda, and Yin (2022), three of the current authors, propos…
MAGIS (Measuring Abundances of red super Giants with Infrared Spectroscopy) project I. Establishment of an abundance analysis procedure for red supergiants and its evaluation with nearby stars
Daisuke Taniguchi, Noriyuki Matsunaga, Naoto Kobayashi +11
[Abbreviated] Context. Given their high luminosities (L>~10^4Lsun), red supergiants (RSGs) are good tracers of the chemical abundances of the young stellar population in the Milky…
