The Chemical Abundance Structure of the Inner Milky Way: A Signature of "Upside-Down" Disk Formation?
Jenna K. C. Freudenburg, David H. Weinberg, Michael R. Hayden +1
We present a model for the [alpha/Fe]-[Fe/H] distribution of stars in the inner Galaxy, R=3-5 kpc, measured as a function of vertical distance |z| from the midplane by Hayden et al…
Red giants observed by CoRoT and APOGEE: The evolution of the Milky Way's radial metallicity gradient
F. Anders, C. Chiappini, I. Minchev +21
Using combined asteroseismic and spectroscopic observations of 418 red-giant stars close to the Galactic disc plane (6 kpc kpc, kpc), w…
Chemical Abundances in a Sample of Red Giants in the Open Cluster NGC 2420 from APOGEE
Diogo Souto, Katia Cunha, Verne Smith +20
NGC 2420 is a 2 Gyr-old well-populated open cluster that lies about 2 kpc beyond the solar circle, in the general direction of the Galactic anti-center. Most previous abundan…
Galactic Archaeology with asteroseismology and spectroscopy: Red giants observed by CoRoT and APOGEE
F. Anders, C. Chiappini, T. S. Rodrigues +42
With the advent of the space missions CoRoT and Kepler, it has become feasible to determine precise asteroseismic masses and ages for large samples of red-giant stars. In this pape…
Cosmic variance in [O/Fe] in the Galactic disk
S. Bertran de Lis, C. Allende Prieto, S. R. Majewski +11
We examine the distribution of the [O/Fe] abundance ratio in stars across the Galactic disk using H-band spectra from the Apache Point Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE). We mi…
Chemical abundance gradients from open clusters in the Milky Way disk: results from the APOGEE survey
Katia Cunha, Peter M. Frinchaboy, Diogo Souto +23
Metallicity gradients provide strong constraints for understanding the chemical evolution of the Galaxy. We report on radial abundance gradients of Fe, Ni, Ca, Si, and Mg obtained…
