Chemical Cartography with APOGEE: Large-scale Mean Metallicity Maps of the Milky Way

Michael R. Hayden, Jon A. Holtzman, Jo Bovy +27

We present Galactic mean metallicity maps derived from the first year of the SDSS-III APOGEE experiment. Mean abundances in different zones of Galactocentric radius (0 < R < 15 kpc…

Discovery of a Dynamical Cold Point in the Heart of the Sagittarius dSph Galaxy with Observations from the APOGEE Project

Steven R. Majewski, Sten Hasselquist, Ewa L. Łokas +30

The dynamics of the core of the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy are explored using high-resolution (R~22,500), H-band, near-infrared spectra of over 1,000 giant st…

The Open Cluster Chemical Analysis and Mapping Survey: Local Galactic Metallicity Gradient with APOGEE using SDSS DR10

Peter M. Frinchaboy, Benjamin Thompson, Kelly M. Jackson +31

The Open Cluster Chemical Analysis and Mapping (OCCAM) Survey aims to produce a comprehensive, uniform, infrared-based dataset for hundreds of open clusters, and constrain key Gala…

The Tenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the SDSS-III Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment

Christopher P. Ahn, Rachael Alexandroff, Carlos Allende Prieto +232

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has been in operation since 2000 April. This paper presents the tenth public data release (DR10) from its current incarnation, SDSS-III. This da…

MARVELS-1: A face-on double-lined binary star masquerading as a resonant planetary system; and consideration of rare false positives in radial velocity planet searches

Jason T. Wright, Arpita Roy, Suvrath Mahadevan +24

We have analyzed new and previously published radial velocity observations of MARVELS-1, known to have an ostensibly substellar companion in a ~6- day orbit. We find significant (~…

Very Metal-poor Stars in the Outer Galactic Bulge Found by the Apogee Survey

Ana E. García Pérez, Katia Cunha, Matthew Shetrone +27

Despite its importance for understanding the nature of early stellar generations and for constraining Galactic bulge formation models, at present little is known about the metal-po…
