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 ...

Utopia Remembers: The Soviet Past in the Imagined Communist Future
Abstract After a twenty‐five‐year hiatus, the reappearance of utopian literature in 1957 prompted Soviet literary watchdogs to corral the subgenre into an ideologically‐acceptable mold. A key requirement was for future generations to be depicted as reverently commemorating the past.

Galactic Archaeology and Minimum Spanning Trees [PDF]
Chemical tagging of stellar debris from disrupted open clusters and associations underpins the science cases for next-generation multi-object spectroscopic surveys. As part of the Galactic Archaeology project TraCD (Tracking Cluster Debris), a preliminary attempt at reconstructing the birth clouds of now phase-mixed thin disk debris is undertaken using

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.

Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

The Ba Isotopic Ratio as a Way of Distinguishing the R- and S-Process in Chemical Evolution Models
Only recently, observational studies have started providing measurements for the barium isotopic ratio in metal-poor stars with unprecedented detail. This new approach can be extremely useful in tracing back the origin of neutron-capture elements, since ...
