The Twentieth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First All-Sky BOSS Spectra, eROSITA-SDSS-V Mapper Coordinated Observations, and a Preview of the Local Volume Mapper
SDSS Collaboration, Mojgan Aghakhanloo, David Aguilar +273
The paper describes the twentieth data release (DR20) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, providing over 3 million new optical spectra from the SDSS‑V Milky Way, Black Hole, and Local…
A nearly pristine star from the Large Magellanic Cloud
Alexander P. Ji, Vedant Chandra, Selenna Mejias-Torres +28
The first stars formed out of pristine gas, causing them to be so massive that none are expected to have survived until today. If their direct descendants were sufficiently low-mas…
robostrategy: Field and Target Assignment Optimization in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey V
Michael R. Blanton, Joleen K. Carlberg, Tom Dwelly +12
We present an algorithmic method for efficiently planning a long-term, large-scale multi-object spectroscopy program. The Sloan Digital Sky Survey V (SDSS-V) Focal Plane System per…
Mapping the Distant and Metal-Poor Milky Way with SDSS-V
Vedant Chandra, Phillip A. Cargile, Alexander P. Ji +28
The fifth-generation Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V) is conducting the first all-sky low-resolution spectroscopic survey of the Milky Way's stellar halo. We describe the stellar…
The Nineteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
SDSS Collaboration, Gautham Adamane Pallathadka, Mojgan Aghakhanloo +209
Mapping the local and distant Universe is key to our understanding of it. For decades, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has made a concerted effort to map millions of celestial…
SDSS-V Milky Way Mapper (MWM): ASPCAP Stellar Parameters and Abundances in SDSS-V Data Release 19
Szabolcs Mészáros, Paula Jofré, Jennifer A. Johnson +25
The goal of this paper is to describe the science verification of Milky Way Mapper (MWM) APOGEE Stellar Parameter and Chemical Abundances Pipeline (ASPCAP) data products published…
