The Thirteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the SDSS-IV Survey MApping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory

SDSS Collaboration, Franco D. Albareti, Carlos Allende Prieto +335

The fourth generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV) began observations in July 2014. It pursues three core programs: APOGEE-2, MaNGA, and eBOSS. In addition, eBOSS cont…

Constraining dust properties in Circumstellar Envelopes of C-stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud: optical constants and grain size of Carbon dust

Ambra Nanni, Paola Marigo, Martin A. T. Groenewegen +5

We present a new approach aimed at constraining the typical size and optical properties of carbon dust grains in Circumstellar envelopes (CSEs) of carbon-rich stars (C-stars) in th…

Eight New Milky Way Companions Discovered in First-Year Dark Energy Survey Data

The DES Collaboration, K. Bechtol, A. Drlica-Wagner +91

We report the discovery of eight new Milky Way companions in ~1,800 deg^2 of optical imaging data collected during the first year of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Each system is id…

Star counts in the Galaxy. Simulating from very deep to very shallow photometric surveys with the TRILEGAL code

L. Girardi, M. A. T. Groenewegen, E. Hatziminaoglou +1

We describe TRILEGAL, a new populations synthesis code for simulating the stellar photometry of any Galaxy field. The code attempts to improve upon several technical aspects of sta…

NGC 1866: a workbench for stellar evolution

Roberto Barmina, Leo Girardi, Cesare Chiosi

The young LMC cluster NGC 1866 represents the ideal laboratory for testing stellar evolutionary models: in particular, it can be used to discriminate among classical stellar models…
