A spectroscopic survey of late-type giants in the Milky Way disk and local halo substructure

Abstract We report the results of a survey of late-type giants aimed at understanding the nature of the disk and nearby halo Galactic stellar populations. We have obtained medium resolution (2–4 Å) spectra for 749 late K and early M giants at mid-latitudes selected from the 2MASS catalog with the FOBOS system at Fan Mountain Observatory. These spectra provide radial velocities (RVs) at the 5 km s−1 level, spectroscopic [Fe/H] good to σ[Fe/H] = 0.25 dex, and information on the relative abundances of Mg/Fe and Na/Fe in these stars. Proper motions from UCAC2 are used to search for local substructures, in particular the leading arm of the Sagittarius tidal streamer passing through the solar neighborhood. The combined proper motions and RVs yield full 6D stellar space motions. We have, by way of kinematics, relatively cleanly isolated the thick disk from the typically high velocity substructures that compose the nearby halo. We find evidence for substructure in the kinematics and metallicities of local halo stars.
