The Fifteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: First Release of MaNGA Derived Quantities, Data Visualization Tools and Stellar Library

D. S. Aguado, Romina Ahumada, Andres Almeida +230

Twenty years have passed since first light for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Here, we release data taken by the fourth phase of SDSS (SDSS-IV) across its first three years o…

Using APOGEE Wide Binaries to Test Chemical Tagging with Dwarf Stars

Jeff J. Andrews, Borja Anguiano, Julio Chanamé +4

Stars of a common origin are thought to have similar, if not nearly identical, chemistry. Chemical tagging seeks to exploit this fact to identify Milky Way subpopulations through t…

Chemical Cartography with APOGEE: Multi-element abundance ratios

David H. Weinberg, Jon A. Holtzman, Sten Hasselquist +25

We map the trends of elemental abundance ratios across the Galactic disk, spanning R = 3-15 kpc and midplane distance |Z|= 0-2 kpc, for 15 elements in a sample of 20,485 stars meas…

Constraining the Solar Galactic Reflex Velocity Using Gaia Observations of the Sagittarius Stream

Christian R. Hayes, David R. Law, Steven R. Majewski

Because of its particular orientation around the Galaxy - i.e., in a plane nearly perpendicular to the Galactic plane and containing both the Sun and Galactic center - the Sagittar…

The origin of accreted stellar halo populations in the Milky Way using APOGEE, , and the EAGLE simulations

J. Ted Mackereth, Ricardo P. Schiavon, Joel Pfeffer +12

Recent work indicates that the nearby Galactic halo is dominated by the debris from a major accretion event. We confirm that result from an analysis of APOGEE-DR14 element abundanc…

Disk-Like Chemistry of the Triangulum-Andromeda Overdensity as Seen by APOGEE

Christian R. Hayes, Steven R. Majewski, Sten Hasselquist +15

The nature of the Triangulum-Andromeda (TriAnd) system has been debated since the discovery of this distant, low-latitude Milky Way (MW) overdensity more than a decade ago. Explana…
