Cosmological implications of baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements

Éric Aubourg, Stephen Bailey, Julian E. Bautista +90

We derive constraints on cosmological parameters and tests of dark energy models from the combination of baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements with cosmic microwave backgr…

High-resolution, H band Spectroscopy of Be Stars with SDSS-III/APOGEE: I. New Be Stars, Line Identifications, and Line Profiles

S. Drew Chojnowski, David G. Whelan, John P. Wisniewski +26

APOGEE has amassed the largest ever collection of multi-epoch, high-resolution (R~22,500), H-band spectra for B-type emission line (Be) stars. The 128/238 APOGEE Be stars for which…

Tracing chemical evolution over the extent of the Milky Way's Disk with APOGEE Red Clump Stars

David L. Nidever, Jo Bovy, Jonathan C. Bird +40

We employ the first two years of data from the near-infrared, high-resolution SDSS-III/APOGEE spectroscopic survey to investigate the distribution of metallicity and alpha-element…

Redshift evolution of the dynamical properties of massive galaxies from SDSS-III/BOSS

Alessandra Beifiori, Daniel Thomas, Claudia Maraston +26

We study the redshift evolution of the dynamical properties of ~180,000 massive galaxies from SDSS-III/BOSS combined with a local early-type galaxy sample from SDSS-II in the redsh…

The Large-scale Distribution of Cool Gas around Luminous Red Galaxies

Guangtun Zhu, Brice Ménard, Dmitry Bizyaev +12

We present a measurement of the correlation function between luminous red galaxies and cool gas traced by Mg II λλ2796, 2803 absorption, on scales ranging from about 30 kpc to 20 M…
