Probing Galactic Structure with the Spatial Correlation Function of SEGUE G-dwarf Stars
Qingqing Mao, Andreas A. Berlind, Kelly Holley-Bockelmann +8
We measure the two-point correlation function of G-dwarf stars within 1-3 kpc of the Sun in multiple lines-of-sight using the Schlesinger et al. G-dwarf sample from the SDSS SEGUE…
Deep SDSS optical spectroscopy of distant halo stars II. Iron, calcium, and magnesium abundances
E. Fernández-Alvar, C. Allende Prieto, K. J. Schlesinger +11
We analyze a sample of 3,944 low-resolution (R ~ 2000) optical spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), focusing on stars with effective temperatures 5800 < Teff < 6300 K,…
The GALAH Survey: Scientific Motivation
G. M. De Silva, K. C. Freeman, J. Bland-Hawthorn +44
The GALAH survey is a large high-resolution spectroscopic survey using the newly commissioned HERMES spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. The HERMES spectrograph provide…
Deep SDSS optical spectroscopy of distant halo stars I. Atmospheric parameters and stellar metallicity distribution
C. Allende Prieto, E. Fernandez-Alvar, K. J. Schlesinger +14
We analyze a sample of tens of thousands of spectra of halo turnoff stars, obtained with the optical spectrographs of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), to characterize the stell…
The Vertical Metallicity Gradient of the Milky Way Disk: Transitions in [a/Fe] Populations
Katharine J. Schlesinger, Jennifer A. Johnson, Constance M. Rockosi +10
Using G dwarfs from the Sloan Extension for Galactic Understanding and Exploration (SEGUE) survey, we have determined a vertical metallicity gradient over a large volume of the Mil…
