Prospects for chemically tagging stars in the Galaxy
Yuan-Sen Ting, Charlie Conroy, Alyssa Goodman
It is now well-established that the elemental abundance patterns of stars holds key clues not only to their formation but also to the assembly histories of galaxies. One of the mos…
Stellar Populations of Barred Quiescent Galaxies
Edmond Cheung, Charlie Conroy, E. Athanassoula +10
Selecting centrally quiescent galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to create high signal-to-noise (>100) stacked spectra with minimal emission line contamination, we a…
Beacons In the Dark: Using Novae and Supernovae to Detect Dwarf Galaxies in the Local Universe
Charlie Conroy, James S. Bullock
We propose that luminous transients, including novae and supernovae, can be used to detect the faintest galaxies in the universe. Beyond a few Mpc, dwarf galaxies with stellar mass…
Circumstellar Dust Around AGB Stars and Implications for Infrared Emission from Galaxies
Alexa Villaume, Charlie Conroy, Benjamin Johnson
Stellar population synthesis (SPS) models are used to infer many galactic properties including star formation histories, metallicities, and stellar and dust masses. However, most S…
The SINFONI Nearby Elliptical Lens Locator Survey: Discovery of two new low-redshift strong lenses and implications for the initial mass function in giant early-type galaxies
Russell J. Smith, John R. Lucey, Charlie Conroy
We present results from a blind survey to identify strong gravitational lenses among the population of low-redshift early-type galaxies. The SINFONI Nearby Elliptical Lens Locator…
