Descripción
SDSS-III's newest release is Data Release 10 (DR10). DR10 contains the first spectra of the APO Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE). APOGEE is the first high-resolution (R ~ 22,500), high signal-to-noise ratio (S/N >= 100 per resolution element), H-band (1.51 - 1.70 um) survey of all Galactic stellar populations (bulge, bar, disks, halo) with a uniform set of stellar tracers and spectral diagnostics. This poster will briefly describe the stellar sample included in DR10, review the data made available in DR10, consisting of fully calibrated, 1-d spectra radial velocities and the by-products of the APOGEE Stellar Parameters and Chemical Abundance Pipeline (ASPCAP): effective temperature, surface gravity, metallicity, and alpha, carbon and nitrogen abundances. We will also present the web tools that are available to the public and highlight the most critical warning and bad data flags.
