Close companions around young stars

Marina Kounkel, Kevin Covey, Maxwell Moe +26

Multiplicity is a fundamental property that is set early during stellar lifetimes, and it is a stringent probe of the physics of star formation. The distribution of close companion…

Deep SDSS optical spectroscopy of distant halo stars II. Iron, calcium, and magnesium abundances

E. Fernández-Alvar, C. Allende Prieto, K. J. Schlesinger +11

We analyze a sample of 3,944 low-resolution (R ~ 2000) optical spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), focusing on stars with effective temperatures 5800 < Teff < 6300 K,…

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…

Very Metal-poor Stars in the Outer Galactic Bulge Found by the Apogee Survey

Ana E. García Pérez, Katia Cunha, Matthew Shetrone +27

Despite its importance for understanding the nature of early stellar generations and for constraining Galactic bulge formation models, at present little is known about the metal-po…

Very Low-mass Stellar and Substellar Companions to Solar-like Stars from Marvels III: A Short-Period Brown Dwarf Candidate Around An Active G0Iv Subgiant

Bo Ma, Jian Ge, Rory Barnes +45

We present an eccentric, short-period brown dwarf candidate orbiting the active, slightly evolved subgiant star TYC 2087-00255-1, which has effective temperature T_eff = 5903+/-42…

Very Low-mass Stellar and Substellar Companions to Solar-like Stars from MARVELS II: A Short-period Companion Orbiting an F Star with Evidence of a Stellar Tertiary And Significant Mutual Inclination

Scott W. Fleming, Jian Ge, Rory Barnes +59

We report the discovery via radial velocity of a short-period (P = 2.430420 \pm 0.000006 days) companion to the F-type main sequence star TYC 2930-00872-1. A long-term trend in the…
