The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) Spectrographs
J. C. Wilson, F. R. Hearty, M. F. Skrutskie +86
We describe the design and performance of the near-infrared (1.51--1.70 micron), fiber-fed, multi-object (300 fibers), high resolution (R = lambda/delta lambda ~ 22,500) spectrogra…
Velocity-resolved reverberation mapping of five bright Seyfert 1 galaxies
G. De Rosa, M. M. Fausnaugh, C. J. Grier +99
We present the first results from a reverberation-mapping campaign undertaken during the first half of 2012, with additional data on one AGN (NGC 3227) from a 2014 campaign. Our ma…
The MaNGA Integral Field Unit Fiber Feed System for the Sloan 2.5 m Telescope
N. Drory, N. MacDonald, M. A. Bershady +22
We describe the design, manufacture, and performance of bare-fiber integral field units (IFUs) for the SDSS-IV survey MaNGA (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at APO) on the the Sloan 2.5 m…
The Properties of Post-Starburst Quasars Based on Optical Spectroscopy
Sabrina L. Cales, Michael S. Brotherton, Zhaohui Shang +8
We present optical spectroscopy of a sample of 38 post-starburst quasars (PSQs) at z ~ 0.3, 29 of which have morphological classifications based on Hubble Space Telescope imaging.…
Probing the low-redshift star formation rate as a function of metallicity through the local environments of type II supernovae
R. Stoll, J. L. Prieto, K. Z. Stanek +1
Type II SNe can trace star formation to probe its global metallicity distribution at low-redshift. We present oxygen and iron abundance distributions of SN II progenitor regions th…
The Unusual Temporal and Spectral Evolution of the Type IIn Supernova 2011ht
P. W. A. Roming, T. A. Pritchard, J. L. Prieto +17
We present very early UV to optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the peculiar Type IIn supernova (SN) 2011ht in UGC 5460. The UV observations of the rise to peak a…
