The eleventh and twelfth data releases of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: final data from SDSS-III

Shadab Alam, +363 more
- 27 Jul 2015 - 
TL;DR: The third generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-III) took data from 2008 to 2014 using the original SDSS wide-field imager, the original and an upgraded multi-object fiber-fed optical spectrograph, a new near-infrared high-resolution spectrogram, and a novel optical interferometer.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Spitzer Space Telescope Survey of the Orion A & B Molecular Clouds - Part I: A Census of Dusty Young Stellar Objects and a Study of their Mid-IR Variability

S. T. Megeath, +12 more
- 18 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a survey of the Orion A and B molecular clouds undertaken with the IRAC and MIPS instruments onboard Spitzer is presented, which includes the Orion Nebula Cluster, the Lynds 1641, 1630 and 1622 dark clouds, and the NGC 2023, 2024, 2068 and 2071 nebulae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infrared Extinction Toward Nearby Star-Forming Regions

K. M. Flaherty, +6 more
- 29 Mar 2007 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, an independent estimate of the interstellar extinction law for the Spitzer IRAC bands as well as a first attempt at extending the law to the 24micron MIPS band were presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Spitzer Space Telescope Survey of the Orion A and B Molecular Clouds. II. The Spatial Distribution and Demographics of Dusty Young Stellar Objects

S. T. Megeath, +13 more
- 18 Dec 2015 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the spatial distribution of dusty young stellar objects (YSOs) identified in the Spitzer Survey of the Orion Molecular clouds, augmenting these data with Chandra X-ray observations to correct for incompleteness in dense clustered regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

In-sync. ii. virial stars from subvirial cores—the velocity dispersion of embedded pre-main-sequence stars in ngc 1333

Jonathan B. Foster, +18 more
- 01 Feb 2015 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used near-infrared spectra obtained with the APOGEE spectrograph to show that the velocity dispersion of young (1-2 Myr) stars in NGC 1333 is 0.92 ± 0.12 km s−1 after correcting for measurement uncertainties and the effect of binaries.
