Tracing Sagittarius Structure with SDSS and SEGUE Imaging and Spectroscopy
Brian Yanny, Heidi Jo Newberg, Jennifer A. Johnson +12
We show that the Sagittarius dwarf tidal stream can be traced with very red K/M-giant stars selected from SDSS photometry. A subset of these stars are spectroscopically confirmed w…
The kinematics of late type stars in the solar cylinder studied with SDSS data
B. Fuchs, C. Dettbarn, H. -W. Rix +11
We study the velocity distribution of Milky Way disk stars in a kiloparsec-sized region around the Sun, based on ~ 2 million M-type stars from DR7 of SDSS, which have newly re-cali…
Hard X-rays and Fluorescent Iron Emission from the Embedded Infrared Cluster in NGC 2071
Stephen L. Skinner, Audrey E. Simmons, Marc Audard +1
We present first results of XMM-Newton X-ray observations of the infrared cluster lying near the NGC 2071 reflection nebula in the Orion B region. This cluster is of interest becau…
A Rich Population of X-ray Emitting Wolf-Rayet Stars in the Galactic Starburst Cluster Westerlund 1
S. L. Skinner, A. E. Simmons, S. A. Zhekov +3
Recent optical and IR studies have revealed that the heavily-reddened starburst cluster Westerlund 1 (Wd 1) contains at least 22 Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars, comprising the richest WR po…
