Spectroscopic Binary Detection as Agent-Callable Tools: Detecting 40,000+ Main-Sequence Binary Candidates from SDSS DR19 APOGEE Spectra

Serat M. Saad, Yuan-Sen Ting

Unresolved binaries are common in spectroscopic surveys, and their blended light biases the parameters inferred for them. Methods to detect them exist, but applying one to a new da…

PANTERA. I. Hunting for the Most Metal-Rich Stars in the Solar Neighborhood with High-Resolution Spectroscopy

Serat M. Saad, D. M. Rowan, K. Z. Stanek +4

We present PANTERA (Project for Astrophysical Nucleosynthesis and Targeted Exploration of metal-Rich Abundances), a high-resolution spectroscopic survey of the most metal-rich star…

No Gravitational Anomaly in Wide Binaries from Forward Modeling of 3D Orbits

Serat M. Saad, Yuan-Sen Ting

Recent work by Chae et al. (2026) reported a gravitational anomaly in 36 wide-binary pairs, finding a gravity boost factor of $γ\equiv G_{\rm eff}/G_{\rm N} \approx 1.60_{-0.14}^{+…

High-Precision Differential Radial Velocities of C3PO Wide Binaries: A Test of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND)

Serat Mahmud Saad, Serat M. Saad, Yuan-Sen Ting

Wide-binary stars, separated by thousands of AU, reside in low-acceleration regimes where Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) predicts deviation from Newtonian gravity. However, Gai…

ABYSS III: Observing accretion activity in young stars through empirical veiling measurements

Serat Saad, Marina Kounkel, Keivan G. Stassun +5

Stellar accretion plays an important role in the early stages of stellar evolution, particularly in Classical T Tauri Stars (CTTSs). Accretion of a CTTS can be related to different…

ABYSS II: Identification of young stars in optical SDSS spectra and their properties

Serat Saad, Kaitlyn Lane, Marina Kounkel +9

We developed a tool that measures equivalent widths of various lines in low resolution optical spectra, and it was applied to stellar spectra obtained as part of SDSS-V and LAMOST…
