    The APOGEE Data Release 16 Spectral Line List
    The updated H-band spectral-line list (from λ15000-17000) adopted by the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) for the SDSS-IV Data...

    The APOGEE Library of Infrared SSP Templates (A-LIST): High-resolution Simple Stellar Population Spectral Models in the H Band
    Integrated light spectroscopy from galaxies can be used to study the stellar populations that cannot be resolved into individual stars. This analysis relies on...

    The APOGEE-2 Survey of the Orion Star-forming Complex. II. Six-dimensional Structure
    We present an analysis of spectroscopic and astrometric data from APOGEE-2 and Gaia DR2 to identify structures toward the Orion Complex. By applying a...

    The Arches cluster revisited. II. A massive eclipsing spectroscopic binary in the Arches cluster
    We have carried out a spectroscopic variability survey of some of the most massive stars in the Arches cluster, using K-band observations obtained with SINFONI...
