Exploring Changing-look Active Galactic Nuclei with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey V: First Year Results

Grisha Zeltyn, Benny Trakhtenbrot, Michael Eracleous +32

"Changing-look" active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) challenge our basic ideas about the physics of accretion flows and circumnuclear gas around supermassive black holes. Using first-y…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: the chemical co-evolution of gas and stars in spiral galaxies

Michael J. Greener, Alfonso Aragón-Salamanca, Michael Merrifield +7

We investigate archaeologically how the metallicity in both stellar and gaseous components of spiral galaxies of differing masses evolve with time, using data from the SDSS-IV MaNG…

Is Terzan 5 the remnant of a building block of the Galactic bulge? Evidence from APOGEE

Dominic J. Taylor, Andrew C. Mason, Ricardo P. Schiavon +16

It has been proposed that the globular cluster-like system Terzan 5 is the surviving remnant of a primordial building block of the Milky Way bulge, mainly due to the age/metallicit…

The Open Cluster Chemical Abundances and Mapping Survey: VII. APOGEE DR17 [C/N]-Age Calibration

Taylor Spoo, Jamie Tayar, Peter M. Frinchaboy +11

Large scale surveys open the possibility to investigate Galactic evolution both chemically and kinematically, however, reliable stellar ages remain a major challenge. Detailed chem…
