A nearly pristine star from the Large Magellanic Cloud

Alexander P. Ji, Vedant Chandra, Selenna Mejias-Torres +28

The first stars formed out of pristine gas, causing them to be so massive that none are expected to have survived until today. If their direct descendants were sufficiently low-mas…

Mapping the Distant and Metal-Poor Milky Way with SDSS-V

Vedant Chandra, Phillip A. Cargile, Alexander P. Ji +28

The fifth-generation Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V) is conducting the first all-sky low-resolution spectroscopic survey of the Milky Way's stellar halo. We describe the stellar…

Chemical tagging with APOGEE, MUSE, and HST: constraints on the formation of Centauri

Andrew C. Mason, Ricardo P. Schiavon, Sebastian Kamann +9

A plethora of evidence suggests that Centauri ( Cen) is the nuclear star cluster of a galaxy that merged with the Milky Way in early times. We use APOGEE, Gaia, MUSE, and HS…

APOKASC-3: The Third Joint Spectroscopic and Asteroseismic catalog for Evolved Stars in the Kepler Fields

Marc H. Pinsonneault, Joel C. Zinn, Jamie Tayar +38

In the third APOKASC catalog, we present data for the complete sample of 15,808 evolved stars with APOGEE spectroscopic parameters and Kepler asteroseismology. We used ten independ…

Unveiling the time evolution of chemical abundances across the Milky Way disk with APOGEE

Bridget Ratcliffe, Ivan Minchev, Friedrich Anders +12

Chemical abundances are an essential tool in untangling the Milky Way's enrichment history. However, the evolution of the interstellar medium abundance gradient with cosmic time is…

Comparative analysis of atmospheric parameters from high-resolution spectroscopic sky surveys: APOGEE, GALAH, Gaia-ESO

Viola Hegedűs, Szabolcs Mészáros, Paula Jofré +5

SDSS-IV APOGEE-2, GALAH and Gaia-ESO are high resolution, ground-based, multi-object spectroscopic surveys providing fundamental stellar atmospheric parameters and multiple element…
