The K2-HERMES Survey. I. Planet Candidate Properties from K2 Campaigns 1-3

Robert A. Wittenmyer, Sanjib Sharma, Dennis Stello +31

Accurate and precise radius estimates of transiting exoplanets are critical for understanding their compositions and formation mechanisms. To know the planet, we must know the host…

The Bulge Metallicity Distribution from the APOGEE Survey

Ana E. Garcia Perez, Melissa Ness, Annie C. Robin +14

The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) provides spectroscopic information of regions of the inner Milky Way inaccessible to optical surveys. We present…

SDSS-V: Pioneering Panoptic Spectroscopy

Juna A. Kollmeier, Gail Zasowski, Hans-Walter Rix +47

SDSS-V will be an all-sky, multi-epoch spectroscopic survey of over six million objects. It is designed to decode the history of the Milky Way, trace the emergence of the chemical…

Stars behind bars I: The Milky Way's central stellar populations

Tobias Buck, Melissa K. Ness, Andrea V. Macciò +2

We show for the first time, that a fully cosmological hydrodynamical simulation can reproduce key properties of the innermost region of the Milky Way. Our high resolution simulatio…

Predicted Stellar Kinematics of a Kiloparsec-Scale Nuclear Disc (or Ring) in the Milky Way

Victor P. Debattista, Samuel W. F. Earp, Melissa Ness +1

In Debattista et al. (2015), we proposed that a kiloparsec-scale nuclear disc is responsible for the high-velocity secondary peak in the stellar line-of-sight velocity distribution…

Target Selection for the SDSS-IV APOGEE-2 Survey

G. Zasowski, R. E. Cohen, S. D. Chojnowski +34

APOGEE-2 is a high-resolution, near-infrared spectroscopic survey observing roughly 300,000 stars across the entire sky. It is the successor to APOGEE and is part of the Sloan Digi…
