Young alpha-enriched giant stars in the solar neighbourhood
Marie Martig, Hans-Walter Rix, Victor Silva Aguirre +31
We derive age constraints for 1639 red giants in the APOKASC sample for which seismic parameters from Kepler, as well as effective temperatures, metallicities and [alpha/Fe] values…
IN-SYNC II: Virial Stars from Sub-Virial Cores -- The Velocity Dispersion of Embedded Pre-Main-Sequence Stars in NGC 1333
Jonathan B. Foster, Michiel Cottaar, Kevin R. Covey +14
The initial velocity dispersion of newborn stars is a major unconstrained aspect of star formation theory. Using near-infrared spectra obtained with the APOGEE spectrograph, we sho…
The power spectrum of the Milky Way: Velocity fluctuations in the Galactic disk
Jo Bovy, Jonathan C. Bird, Ana E. García Pérez +3
We investigate the kinematics of stars in the mid-plane of the Milky Way on scales between 25 pc and 10 kpc with data from the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experimen…
The HI Chronicles of LITTLE THINGS BCDs II: The Origin of IC 10's HI Structure
Trisha Ashley, Bruce G. Elmegreen, Megan Johnson +3
In this paper we analyze Very Large Array (VLA) telescope and Green Bank Telescope (GBT) atomic hydrogen (HI) data for the LITTLE THINGS(1) blue compact dwarf galaxy IC 10. The VLA…
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…
Mapping the Interstellar Medium with Near-Infrared Diffuse Interstellar Bands
G. Zasowski, B. Menard, D. Bizyaev +10
We map the distribution and properties of the Milky Way's interstellar medium as traced by diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) detected in near-infrared stellar spectra from the SDSS…
Extinction Maps towards the Milky Way Bulge: 2D and 3D Tests with APOGEE
M. Schultheis, G. Zasowski, C. Allende Prieto +15
Galactic interstellar extinction maps are powerful and necessary tools for Milky Way structure and stellar population analyses, particularly toward the heavily-reddened bulge and i…
The APOGEE red-clump catalog: Precise distances, velocities, and high-resolution elemental abundances over a large area of the Milky Way's disk
Jo Bovy, David L. Nidever, Hans-Walter Rix +48
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey III's Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) is a high-resolution near-infrared spectroscopic survey covering all of the major…
