BP3M: Bayesian Positions, Parallaxes, and Proper Motions derived from the Hubble Space Telescope and Gaia data
Kevin A. McKinnon, Andrés del Pino, Constance M. Rockosi +9
We present a hierarchical Bayesian pipeline, BP3M, that measures positions, parallaxes, and proper motions (PMs) for cross-matched sources between Hubble~Space~Telescope (HST) imag…
Data-driven Discovery of Diffuse Interstellar Bands with APOGEE Spectra
Kevin A. McKinnon, Melissa K. Ness, Constance M. Rockosi +1
Data-driven models of stellar spectra are useful tools to study non-stellar information, such as the Diffuse Interstellar Bands (DIBs) caused by intervening interstellar material.…
HALO7D III: Chemical Abundances of Milky Way Halo Stars from Medium Resolution Spectra
Kevin A. McKinnon, Emily C. Cunningham, Constance M. Rockosi +4
The Halo Assembly in Lambda Cold Dark Matter: Observations in 7 Dimensions (HALO7D) survey measures the kinematics and chemical properties of stars in the Milky Way (MW) stellar ha…
Overview of the DESI Milky Way Survey
Andrew P. Cooper, Sergey E. Koposov, Carlos Allende Prieto +62
We describe the Milky Way Survey (MWS) that will be undertaken with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) on the Mayall 4m telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory…
Investigation of the errors in SDSS proper-motion measurements using samples of quasars
Ruobing Dong, James Gunn, Gillian Knapp +2
We investigate in detail the probability distribution function (pdf) of the proper-motion measurement errors in the SDSS+USNO-B proper-motion catalog of \citet{mun04} using clean q…
The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS: III. Stellar Kinematics
N. A. Bond, Z. Ivezic, B. Sesar +2
We study Milky Way kinematics using a sample of 18.8 million main-sequence stars with r<20 and proper-motion measurements derived from SDSS and POSS astrometry, including ~170,000…
