AI and The Enclosure of the Scientific Commons
P. K. G. Williams
The scientific literature can be viewed as an "information commons:" an intangible resource that "no one owns and is shared by everyone." There are well-established economic and po…
Is Liller 1 a building block of the Galactic bulge? -- Evidence with APOGEE
Anna Liptrott, Ricardo P. Schiavon, Andrew C. Mason +10
Liller 1 is a stellar system orbiting within the inner 0.8kpc of the Galactic centre, characterised by a wide spread in age and metallicity, indicating a high mass. Liller 1 has be…
Unveiling M33's Hidden Merger History: A Potential Population of Star Clusters on Retrograde Orbits
Borja Anguiano, Geraint F. Lewis, Steven R. Majewski
We report the discovery of a possible sub-population of stellar clusters that appear to follow retrograde orbits around the third largest galaxy in the Local Group, M33 (Triangulum…
Calibration of Binary Population Synthesis Models Using White Dwarf Binaries from APOGEE, GALEX and Gaia
A. C. Rubio, K. Breivik, C. Badenes +5
The effectiveness and stability of mass transfer in binaries system are crucial in determining its final product. Rapid binary population synthesis (BPS) codes simplify the complex…
Tidal Debris Candidates from the Centauri Accretion Event and its Role in Building Up the Milky Way Halo
Borja Anguiano, Arik Mitschang, Takanobu Kirihara +11
We identify stellar tidal debris from the Centauri ( Cen) system among field stars in the APOGEE survey via chemical tagging using a neural network trained on APOGEE observa…
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…
Chemo-dynamical Evolution of Simulated Satellites for a Milky Way-like Galaxy
Yutaka Hirai, Evan N. Kirby, Masashi Chiba +5
The chemical abundances of Milky Way's satellites reflect their star formation histories (SFHs), yet, due to the difficulty of determining the ages of old stars, the SFHs of most s…
The APOGEE Value Added Catalogue of Galactic globular cluster stars
Ricardo P. Schiavon, Siân G. Phillips, Natalie Myers +17
We introduce the SDSS/APOGEE Value Added Catalogue of Galactic Globular Cluster (GC) Stars. The catalogue is the result of a critical search of the APOGEE data release 17 (DR17) ca…
The Surface Mass Density of the Milky Way: Does the Traditional Approach Work in the Context of New Surveys?
Xinlun Cheng, Borja Anguiano, Steven R. Majewski +1
We revisit the classical problem -- determination of the vertical force and implied total mass density distribution of the Milky Way disk -- for a wide range of Galactocentri…
RomAndromeda: The Roman Survey of the Andromeda Halo
Arjun Dey, Joan Najita, Carrie Filion +50
As our nearest large neighbor, the Andromeda Galaxy provides a unique laboratory for investigating galaxy formation and the distribution and substructure properties of dark matter…
White dwarf binaries Across the H-R Diagram
Borja Anguiano, Steven R. Majewski, Keivan G. Stassun +7
We created the APOGEE-GALEX-\emph{Gaia} catalog to study white dwarfs binaries. This database aims to create a minimally biased sample of WD binary systems identified from a combin…
Multiplicity Statistics of Stars in the Sagittarius Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy: Comparison to the Milky Way
Victoria Bonidie, Travis Court, Christine Mazzola Daher +17
We use time-resolved spectra from the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) to examine the distribution of radial velocity (RV) variations in 249 stars id…
The chemical characterisation of halo substructure in the Milky Way based on APOGEE
Danny Horta, Ricardo P. Schiavon, J. Ted Mackereth +21
Galactic haloes in a -CDM universe are predicted to host today a swarm of debris resulting from cannibalised dwarf galaxies. The chemo-dynamical information recorded in their st…
Kinematical Analysis of Substructure in the Southern Periphery of the Large Magellanic Cloud
Xinlun Cheng, Yumi Choi, Knut Olsen +10
We report the first 3-D kinematical measurements of 88 stars in the direction of several recently discovered substructures in the southern periphery of the Large Magellanic Cloud (…
The Seventeenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: Complete Release of MaNGA, MaStar and APOGEE-2 Data
Abdurro'uf, Katherine Accetta, Conny Aerts +337
This paper documents the seventeenth data release (DR17) from the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys; the fifth and final release from the fourth phase (SDSS-IV). DR17 contains the complete…
APOGEE Detection of N-rich stars in the tidal tails of Palomar 5
Sian G. Phillips, Ricardo P. Schiavon, J. Ted Mackereth +15
Recent results from chemical tagging studies using APOGEE data suggest a strong link between the chemical abundance patterns of stars found within globular clusters, and chemically…
Stellar multiplicity and stellar rotation: Insights from APOGEE
Christine Mazzola Daher, Carles Badenes, Jamie Tayar +18
We measure rotational broadening in spectra taken by the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) survey to characterise the relationship between stellar mul…
