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…

Disentangling the Galactic Halo with APOGEE: I. Chemical and Kinematical Investigation of Distinct Metal-Poor Populations

Christian R. Hayes, Steven R. Majewski, Matthew Shetrone +21

We find two chemically distinct populations separated relatively cleanly in the [Fe/H] - [Mg/Fe] plane, but also distinguished in other chemical planes, among metal-poor stars (pri…

What is the Milky Way outer halo made of? High resolution spectroscopy of distant red giants

G. Battaglia, P. North, P. Jablonka +5

In a framework where galaxies form hierarchically, extended stellar haloes are predicted to be an ubiquitous feature around Milky Way-like galaxies and to consist mainly of the shr…

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…

Atypical Mg-poor Milky Way field stars with globular cluster second-generation like chemical patterns

J. G. Fernández-Trincado, O. Zamora, D. A. Garcia-Hernandez +48

We report the peculiar chemical abundance patterns of eleven atypical Milky Way (MW) field red giant stars observed by the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (A…
