SDSS-III
APOGEE: an infrared, high resolution spectroscopic survey of the stellar populations of the Galaxy
BOSS: will measure the cosmic distance scale via clustering in the large-scale galaxy distribution and the Lyman-α forest
SEGUE-2: will map the structure, kinematics, and chemical evolution of the outer Milky Way disk and halo
MARVELS: will probe the population of giant planets via radial velocity monitoring of 11,000 stars

Unblended Lines in H band?
Molecules are very prevalent in the H-band: CO, CN, OH in addition to the atomic features: Mg, Fe
![Page 8: APOGEE Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061517/56813500550346895d9c4b9c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Spectra
A small piece of the APOGEE specta for stars near the tip of the giant branch in several GC.
OH is visible even in the most metal-poor clusters but the double metal molecules disapear quickly with decreasing metallicity.

• A 3-D chemical abundance distribution (many elements), MDFs across Galactic disk, bar, bulge, halo.
• Probe correlations between chemistry and kinematics (noteGaia proper motions eventually as well).
• Constrain SFH and IMF of bulge/disk as function of radius, metallicity/age, chemical evolution of inner Galaxy.
• Detailed study of Galactic bar and spiral arms and theirinfluence on abundances/kinematics of disk/bulge stars.
• Measure Galactic rotation curve (include spec. p., Gaia pm)• Search for and probe chemistry/kinematics of (low-latitude)
halo substructure (e.g., Monoceros Ring).• Combine with existing/expected optical, NIR and MIR data
and map Galactic dust distribution using spec. p’s,constrain variations in extinction law
• Look for early generations of stars and/or their signatures in the chemistry of the most metal-poor bulge stars

Early Science Highlights
Seem to be a family of stars on leading edge of bar.
• Detection of high velocity stars in Galactic bulge/bar
(Nidever/Zasowski et al. 2012)
If this interpretation is correct, a negative RV counterpart should befound in the IV quadrant

Your Free AccessBasic Searches: There are two basic ways to make a search for APOGEE results: 1) From the
SDSS-III DR10 Catalog Archive Server (CAS or SkyServer) http://skyserver.sdss3.org/dr10/en/home.aspx or 2) From the DR10 Science Archive Server (SAS) http://dr10.sdss3.org/basicIRSpectra. The SAS is what you might use if you want the actual spectra, while the SkyServer is useful for making lists of targets or data results. Below we show how one might search for targets in a cluster and then retrieve a spectrum of a cluster star:

Extending APOGEE
SDSS3/APOGEE Survey ends July 2014SDSS3: Resulting 105 sample very large, but still scratching surface:
§ Halo sample relatively shallow. Chance to go deep.
§ Bulge currently relatively “meagerly” sampled (~8,000 stars).
§ Bulge, bar and inner disk hard to do from APO!!– high airmass reduces FOV due to differential refraction effects– only partial bulge coverage– pile-up of inner Galaxy longitudes over small range of RA
APOGEE extension for “After Sloan-III”: § APOGEE-2North significantly increase sample by factor of several.
§ Instrument ready from the start – ideally another ~250,000 stars.§ APOGEE-2South, cloned instrument on Du Pont 2.5-m at LCO
§100,000 – 170,000 stars.

Science of an APOGEE-2Southq Large chemical and kinematical study of the Galactic bulge
§ 65,000-100,000 stars (or more) & ~15 elements § Significantly increase sampling of low end of MDF.§ Increase chance of seeing “first” stars (Tumlinson 2010) …
...or constrain their nature from abundance imprint on succeeding generations (Eckstroem et al. ‘08).
§ X-shaped bulge (McWilliam & Zoccali 2010, De Propris et al. 2011).§ Star formation, clusters & history of Galactic center environment.§ Sample other rare stellar types.
(e.g., C-stars, CN-strong stars, S-type, Mira, very young stars)§ Center of halo and disk distributions.§ Explore dynamics of the bar(s).
