The Metallicity Distribution Functions of SEGUE G and K dwarfs: Constraints for Disk Chemical Evolution and Formation
Katharine J. Schlesinger, Jennifer A. Johnson, Constance M. Rockosi +14
We present the metallicity distribution function (MDF) for 24,270 G and 16,847 K dwarfs at distances from 0.2 to 2.3 kpc from the Galactic plane, based on spectroscopy from the Slo…
Metallicity Gradients in the Milky Way Disk as Observed by the SEGUE Survey
Judy Y. Cheng, Constance M. Rockosi, Heather L. Morrison +6
The observed radial and vertical metallicity distribution of old stars in the Milky Way disk provides a powerful constraint on the chemical enrichment and dynamical history of the…
Formation and Evolution of the Disk System of the Milky Way: [alpha/Fe] Ratios and Kinematics of the SEGUE G-Dwarf Sample
Young Sun Lee, Timothy C. Beers, Deokkeun An +10
We employ measurements of the [alpha/Fe] ratio derived from low-resolution (R~2000) spectra of 17,277 G-type dwarfs from the SEGUE survey to separate them into likely thin- and thi…
