TESS Subgiant and Lower-red-giant Asteroseismology in the Continuous Viewing Zones
Asteroseismology, the study of stellar oscillations, and stellar modeling both offer profound insights into the fundamental properties and evolution of stars.

Abstract The MIST experiment aims to detect the cosmological 21‐cm signal through sky observations at 25–125 MHz using a wide‐beam antenna. The antenna is mounted above the soil and the beam characteristics are highly dependent on the soil's electrical properties.

Galactic Archaeology with the Subaru Prime Focus Spectrograph [PDF]
AbstractWe present an overview of our Galactic Archaeology (GA) survey program with the Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) for Subaru. Following successful design reviews, the instrument is now under construction with first light anticipated in 2018. Main characteristics of PFS and the science goals in our PFS/GA program are described.

The APO-K2 Catalog. II. Accurate Stellar Ages for Red Giant Branch Stars across the Milky Way
We present stellar age determinations for 4661 red giant branch stars in the APO-K2 catalog, derived using mass estimates from K2 asteroseismology from the K2 Galactic Archaeology Program and elemental abundances from the Apache Point Galactic Evolution ...

A Tale of Two Disks: Mapping the Milky Way with the Final Data Release of APOGEE
We present new maps of the Milky Way disk showing the distribution of metallicity ([Fe/H]), α -element abundances ([Mg/Fe]), and stellar age, using a sample of 66,496 red giant stars from the final data release (DR17) of the Apache Point Observatory ...

Abstract Provenance is the story of how something has come to be. In this paper, we provide a systematic literature review to categorize the various notions of provenance in Information Sciences. The goal of this review is to paint a broader picture of the multiple uses of provenance at play and to enhance our understanding of the importance of ...

Revealing the Origins of Galactic Globular Clusters via their Mg–Al Abundances
Many Galactic globular clusters (GCs) originated in diverse host galaxies before being subsequently incorporated into the Milky Way through hierarchical galaxy assembly. Identifying their origins is crucial for revealing galaxy properties at early times.

ABSTRACT Isochrones, equal‐age curves, are widely used in astrophysics to estimate stellar ages. Classical stellar parameters are, however, very limited in their usability for main sequence stars because of their weak age‐dependence. Here, rotation period measurements provide complementary information.

Tracing the Galactic Origins of Selected Four G-type Stars in the Solar Neighborhood
We present a multimethod investigation of four metal-poor G-type main-sequence stars to resolve their Galactic origins. By combining high-resolution spectroscopy from PolarBase, photometric/astrometric data from Gaia DR3, and spectral energy distribution

NLTE Analysis of Y i and Y ii in the Atmospheres of FGK Stars
The nonlocal thermodynamical equilibrium (NLTE) line formation of Y i and Y ii is considered in 1D LTE model atmospheres of FGK-type stars. The model atom was constructed with the most up-to-date atomic data, including quantum cross sections and rate ...
