A Galactic intermediate-mass stripped star with a Wolf-Rayet-like wind
Johanna Müller-Horn, Kareem El-Badry, Andreas A. C. Sander +17
Binary interaction in massive stars is expected to produce a large population of intermediate-mass (- M) envelope-stripped stars, yet such objects have remained elusi…
Discovery of the Distant, Ultra-Faint Milky Way Satellite Aquarius IV with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Early Data Preview 2
William Cerny, Aashay Pai, Alex Drlica-Wagner +16
We present the discovery of Aquarius IV (Rubin J22010234) -- the first ultra-faint Milky Way satellite to be identified using data from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory. This syste…
The Twentieth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First All-Sky BOSS Spectra, eROSITA-SDSS-V Mapper Coordinated Observations, and a Preview of the Local Volume Mapper
SDSS Collaboration, Mojgan Aghakhanloo, David Aguilar +273
The paper describes the twentieth data release (DR20) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, providing over 3 million new optical spectra from the SDSS‑V Milky Way, Black Hole, and Local…
BOSS-CLAM: Utilizing a Constrained Linear Absorption Model to Infer Stellar Parameters from BOSS Spectra
Ilija Medan, Andrew R. Casey, Alexander P. Ji +13
Large spectroscopic surveys require robust pipelines capable of inferring stellar parameters over a wide range of the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram from data of varying quality.…
A Probabilistic Framework for Population Studies of the Solar Neighborhood: Application to SDSS-V and Gaia
Ilija Medan, Keivan G. Stassun, Zachary Way +8
Studies of the Solar Neighborhood require spectroscopic follow-up of stars identified in astrometric surveys to fully characterize their physical properties. The SDSS-V Solar Neigh…
The Dark Energy Camera All Data Everywhere cosmic shear project V: Constraints on cosmology and astrophysics from 270 million galaxies across 13,000 deg of the sky
D. Anbajagane, C. Chang, A. Drlica-Wagner +78
The paper presents cosmological and astrophysical constraints derived from cosmic shear measurements of 270 million galaxies covering 13,000 deg², combining data from the DECADE pr…
