Telescope control software and proto-model siderostat for the SDSS-V Local Volume Mapper
Hojae Ahn, Florian Briegel, Jimin Han +19
The fifth Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V) Local Volume Mapper (LVM) is a wide-field integral field unit (IFU) survey that uses an array of four 160 mm fixed telescopes with sider…
The SDSS-V Local Volume Mapper (LVM): Scientific Motivation and Project Overview
Niv Drory, Guillermo A. Blanc, Kathryn Kreckel +48
We present the Sloan Digital Sky Survey V (SDSS-V) Local Volume Mapper (LVM). The LVM is an integral-field spectroscopic survey of the Milky Way, Magellanic Clouds, and of a sample…
Spectacular nucleosynthesis from early massive stars
Alexander P. Ji, Sanjana Curtis, Nicholas Storm +39
Stars formed with initial mass over 50 Msun are very rare today, but they are thought to be more common in the early universe. The fates of those early, metal-poor, massive stars a…
The Eighteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: Targeting and First Spectra from SDSS-V
Andrés Almeida, Scott F. Anderson, Maria Argudo-Fernández +151
The eighteenth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys (SDSS) is the first one for SDSS-V, the fifth generation of the survey. SDSS-V comprises three primary scientific progr…
The MegaMapper: A Stage-5 Spectroscopic Instrument Concept for the Study of Inflation and Dark Energy
David J. Schlegel, Juna A. Kollmeier, Greg Aldering +86
In this white paper, we present the MegaMapper concept. The MegaMapper is a proposed ground-based experiment to measure Inflation parameters and Dark Energy from galaxy redshifts a…
A Spectroscopic Road Map for Cosmic Frontier: DESI, DESI-II, Stage-5
David J. Schlegel, Simone Ferraro, Greg Aldering +62
In this white paper, we present an experimental road map for spectroscopic experiments beyond DESI. DESI will be a transformative cosmological survey in the 2020s, mapping 40 milli…
Validating the Local Volume Mapper acquisition and guiding hardware
Maximilian Häberle, Thomas M. Herbst, Peter Bizenberger +13
The Local Volume Mapper (LVM) project is one of three surveys that form the Sloan Digital Sky Survey V. It will map the interstellar gas emission in a large fraction of the souther…
Massive Young Stellar Objects in the Galactic Center. II. Seeing Through the Ice-rich Envelopes
Dajeong Jang, Deokkeun An, Kris Sellgren +3
To study the demographics of interstellar ices in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way, we obtain near-infrared spectra of red point sources using NASA IRTF/SpeX…
Fluorine Abundances in the Galactic Nuclear Star Cluster
Rafael Guerço, Solange Ramírez, Katia Cunha +4
Abundances of fluorine (F), as well as isotopic ratios of O/O, are derived in a sample of luminous young (10--10 yrs) red giants in the Galac…
