The Metallicity and Distance of Leo A from Blue Supergiants
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We have obtained high-quality spectra of blue supergiant candidates in the dwarf irregular galaxy Leo A with the Low Resolution Imaging Spectrometer at the Keck I telescope.

Robust Data-driven Metallicities for 175 Million Stars from Gaia XP Spectra
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 We derive and publish data-driven estimates of stellar metallicity [M/H] for ∼175 million stars with low-resolution XP spectra published in Gaia DR3.

Understanding the Chemical Evolution of Blue Edge-on Low Surface Brightness Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present a sample of 330 blue edge-on low surface brightness galaxies (ELSBGs). To understand the chemical evolution of ELSBGs, we derived the gas-phase abundance and the [ α /Fe] ratio.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We use the DR9 of the DESI legacy imaging survey and SDSS galaxy groups to measure the conditional luminosity function (CLF) for groups with halo mass M _h ≥ 10 ^12 M _⊙ and redshift 0.01 ≤ z ≤ 0.08, down to a limiting r -band magnitude of M _r = −10 to −

Search for Extremely Metal-poor Stars with Gemini-N/Graces. I. Chemical-abundance Analysis
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present stellar parameters and abundances of 13 elements for 18 very metal-poor (VMP; [Fe/H] < –2.0) stars, selected as extremely metal-poor (EMP; [Fe/H] < –3.0) candidates from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and Large sky Area Multi-Object Fiber ...

The Origin of the Nuclear Star-forming Ring in NGC 3182
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We investigate the stellar and ionized gas kinematics, and stellar populations of NGC 3182 galaxy using integral field spectrograph data from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey. We try to clarify the nature of the ring structure in NGC 3182.

The Chemodynamics of the Stellar Populations in M31 from APOGEE Integrated-light Spectroscopy
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present an analysis of nearly 1000 near-infrared, integrated-light spectra from APOGEE in the inner ∼7 kpc of M31. We utilize full-spectrum fitting with A-LIST simple stellar population spectral templates that represent a population of stars with the ...
