A Galactic Eclipse: The Small Magellanic Cloud is Forming Stars in Two, Superimposed Systems
Claire E. Murray, Sten Hasselquist, Joshua E. G. Peek +22
The structure and dynamics of the star-forming disk of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) have long confounded us. The SMC is widely used as a prototype for galactic physics at low m…
Revealing the Chemical Structure of the Magellanic Clouds with APOGEE. III. Abundance Gradients of the Small Magellanic Cloud
Joshua T. Povick, David L. Nidever, Pol Massana +10
We determine radial- and age-abundance gradients of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) using spectra of 2,062 red giant branch (RGB) field stars observed by SDSS-IV / APOGEE-2S. With…
Revealing the Chemical Structure of the Magellanic Clouds with APOGEE. II. Abundance Gradients of the Large Magellanic Cloud
Joshua T. Povick, David L. Nidever, Steven R. Majewski +10
We present the abundance gradients of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) for 25 elemental abundance ratios and their respective temporal evolution as well as age-[X/Fe] trends using…
Exploring the Origin of the Distance Bimodality of Stars in the Periphery of the Small Magellanic Cloud with APOGEE and Gaia
Andres Almeida, Steven R. Majewski, David L. Nidever +12
The Magellanic Cloud system represents a unique laboratory for study of both interacting dwarf galaxies and the ongoing process of the formation of the Milky Way and its halo. We f…
An Investigation of Non-Canonical Mixing in Red Giant Stars Using APOGEE 12C/13C Ratios Observed in Open Cluster Stars
Caroline McCormick, Steven R. Majewski, Verne V. Smith +9
Standard stellar evolution theory poorly predicts the surface abundances of chemical species in low-mass, red giant branch (RGB) stars. Observations show an enhancement of p-p chai…
Revealing the Chemical Structure of the Magellanic Clouds with APOGEE. I. Calculating Individual Stellar Ages of RGB Stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Joshua T. Povick, David L. Nidever, Pol Massana +12
Stellar ages are critical for understanding the temporal evolution of a galaxy. We calculate the ages of over 6000 red giant branch stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) observ…
Chemo-Dynamical Tagging in the Outskirts: The Origins of Stellar Substructures in the Magellanic Clouds
César Muñoz, Antonela Monachesi, David L. Nidever +12
We present the first detailed chemical analysis from APOGEE-2S observations of stars in six regions of recently discovered substructures in the outskirts of the Magellanic Clouds e…
The Eighteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: Targeting and First Spectra from SDSS-V
Andrés Almeida, Scott F. Anderson, Maria Argudo-Fernández +151
The eighteenth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys (SDSS) is the first one for SDSS-V, the fifth generation of the survey. SDSS-V comprises three primary scientific progr…
