4MOST Survey Strategy Plan
G. Guiglion, C. Battistini, C. P. M. Bell +30
The current status of and motivation for the 4MOST Survey Strategy, as developed by the Consortium science team, are presented here. Key elements of the strategy are described, suc…
4MOST Scientific Operations
C. J. Walcher, M. Banerji, C. Battistini +65
The 4MOST instrument is a multi-object spectrograph that will address Galactic and extragalactic science cases simultaneously by observing targets from a large number of different…
4MOST: Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals
R. S. de Jong, O. Agertz, A. Agudo Berbel +335
We introduce the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST), a new high-multiplex, wide-field spectroscopic survey facility under development for the four-metre-class Vis…
HERBS I: Metallicity and alpha enhancement along the Galactic bulge minor axis
L. Duong, M. Asplund, D. M. Nataf +3
To better understand the origin and evolution of the Milky Way bulge, we have conducted a survey of bulge red giant branch and clump stars using the HERMES spectrograph on the Angl…
Estimating stellar ages and metallicities from parallaxes and broadband photometry - successes and shortcomings
Louise M. Howes, Lennart Lindegren, Sofia Feltzing +2
A deep understanding of the Milky Way galaxy, its formation and evolution requires observations of huge numbers of stars. Stellar photometry, therefore, provides an economical meth…
The age and abundance structure of the stellar populations in the central sub-kpc of the Milky Way
T. Bensby, S. Feltzing, A. Gould +6
The four main findings about the age and abundance structure of the Milky Way bulge based on microlensed dwarf and subgiant stars are: (1) a wide metallicity distribution with dist…
