The Fifteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: First Release of MaNGA Derived Quantities, Data Visualization Tools and Stellar Library

D. S. Aguado, Romina Ahumada, Andres Almeida +230

Twenty years have passed since first light for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Here, we release data taken by the fourth phase of SDSS (SDSS-IV) across its first three years o…

APOGEE DR14/DR15 Abundances in the Inner Milky Way

G. Zasowski, M. Schultheis, S. Hasselquist +14

We present an overview of the distributions of 11 elemental abundances in the Milky Way's inner regions, as traced by APOGEE stars released as part of SDSS Data Release 14/15 (DR14…

Kinetic Tomography. II. A second method for mapping the velocity field of the Milky Way Interstellar Medium and a comparison with spiral structure models

Kirill Tchernyshyov, J. E. G. Peek, Gail Zasowski

In this work, we derive a spatially resolved map of the line-of-sight velocity of the interstellar medium and use it, along with a second map of line-of-sight velocity from Paper I…

A chemical and kinematical analysis of the intermediate-age open cluster IC 166 from APOGEE and Gaia DR2

J. Schiappacasse-Ulloa, B. Tang, J. G. Fernández-Trincado +26

IC 166 is an intermediate-age open cluster ( Gyr) which lies in the transition zone of the metallicity gradient in the outer disc. Its location, combined with our very limi…

Signatures of the Galactic bar on stellar kinematics unveiled by APOGEE

Pedro Alonso Palicio, Inma Martinez-Valpuesta, Carlos Allende Prieto +7

Bars are common galactic structures in the local universe that play an important role in the secular evolution of galaxies, including the Milky Way. In particular, the velocity dis…
