Young alpha-enriched giant stars in the solar neighbourhood

Marie Martig, Hans-Walter Rix, Victor Silva Aguirre +31

We derive age constraints for 1639 red giants in the APOKASC sample for which seismic parameters from Kepler, as well as effective temperatures, metallicities and [alpha/Fe] values…

The APOKASC Catalog: An Asteroseismic and Spectroscopic Joint Survey of Targets in the Kepler Fields

Marc H. Pinsonneault, Yvonne Elsworth, Courtney Epstein +42

We present the first APOKASC catalog of spectroscopic and asteroseismic properties of 1916 red giants observed in the Kepler fields. The spectroscopic parameters provided from the…

Bayesian distances and extinctions for giants observed by Kepler and APOGEE

Thaíse S. Rodrigues, Léo Girardi, Andrea Miglio +30

We present a first determination of distances and extinctions for individual stars in the first release of the APOKASC catalogue, built from the joint efforts of the Apache Point O…

The APOGEE red-clump catalog: Precise distances, velocities, and high-resolution elemental abundances over a large area of the Milky Way's disk

Jo Bovy, David L. Nidever, Hans-Walter Rix +48

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey III's Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) is a high-resolution near-infrared spectroscopic survey covering all of the major…

Testing the Asteroseismic Mass Scale Using Metal-Poor Stars Characterized with APOGEE and Kepler

Courtney R. Epstein, Yvonne P. Elsworth, Jennifer A. Johnson +29

Fundamental stellar properties, such as mass, radius, and age, can be inferred using asteroseismology. Cool stars with convective envelopes have turbulent motions that can stochast…
