The study of primitive asteroids is relevant to understanding the origin and evolution of our Solar System. These asteroids contain valuable information about volatile and organic compounds present during the prebiotic stages of Earth and other terrestrial planets. Interest in the main-belt asteroids that are the likely sources of primitive near

We present a search for new members of the 300 km s‑1 stream (300S) near the dwarf galaxy Segue 1 using wide-field survey data. We identify 11 previously unknown bright stream members in the APOGEE-2 and SEGUE-1 and 2 spectroscopic surveys. Based on the spatial distribution of the high-velocity stars, we confirm for the first time that this

The Open Cluster Chemical Abundances and Mapping (OCCAM) survey aims to produce a comprehensive, uniform, infrared-based spectroscopic data set for hundreds of open clusters, and to constrain key Galactic dynamical and chemical parameters from this sample. This second contribution from the OCCAM survey presents analysis of 259 member stars with [Fe

Trojans are a significant portion of the small bodies population located within two clouds in the L4 and L5 Lagrangian points of Jupiter's orbit. The study of primitive small bodies is relevant to the origin and nature of volatile and organic material in the early Solar System. Dedicated studies of the nature of these bodies can significantly

We present the first results from the GeMS/GSAOI Galactic Globular Cluster Survey (G4CS) of the Milky Way globular clusters NGC 3201 and NGC 2298. Using the Gemini South Adaptive Optics Imager (GSAOI), in tandem with the Gemini Multi-conjugate adaptive optics System (GeMS) on the 8.1 m Gemini-South telescope, we collected deep near-IR observations

The Dharma Planet Survey (DPS) aims to monitor about 150 nearby very bright FGKM dwarfs (within 50 pc) during 2016-2020 for low-mass planet detection and characterization using the TOU very high resolution optical spectrograph (R ≈ 100 000, 380-900 nm). TOU was initially mounted to the 2-m Automatic Spectroscopic Telescope at Fairborn Observatory
