Sodium and Oxygen Abundances in the Open Cluster NGC 6791 from APOGEE H-Band Spectroscopy

Katia Cunha, Verne V. Smith, Jennifer A. Johnson +27

The open cluster NGC 6791 is among the oldest, most massive and metal-rich open clusters in the Galaxy. High-resolution -band spectra from the Apache Point Observatory Galactic…

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…

Tracing chemical evolution over the extent of the Milky Way's Disk with APOGEE Red Clump Stars

David L. Nidever, Jo Bovy, Jonathan C. Bird +40

We employ the first two years of data from the near-infrared, high-resolution SDSS-III/APOGEE spectroscopic survey to investigate the distribution of metallicity and alpha-element…

Lithium Inventory of 2 M_sun Red Clump Stars: Is Li Created During the He Flash?

Joleen K. Carlberg, Katia Cunha, Verne V. Smith

A recent study of Li abundances in field red giant stars suggested that the phenomenon of enriched surface Li may be a short-lived phase of red clump evolution for stars with masse…

Hubble Space Telescope Near-Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of the Bright CEMP-no Star BD+44 493

Vinicius Placco, Timothy Beers, Ian Roederer +10

We present an elemental-abundance analysis, in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) spectral range, for the extremely metal-poor star BD+44 493, a 9th magnitude sub-giant with [Fe/H] = -3.8…

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…
