Descripción
The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) will
undertake an H-band (1.52-1.68 micron) spectroscopic survey of 1E5 red
giant stars spanning the Galactic disk, bulge, and halo, with typical
limiting magnitude H 12.5. During the commissioning of APOGEE a number
of plates containing stellar clusters were observed. Some of these star
clusters are well-studied, such as M3, and others have few
literatureabundance references, such as NGC 5466. We exhibit sample
spectra from these clusters and give examples of the lines that can be
identified at different metallicities. Metallicities and abundances are
derived using a traditional equivalent width analysis with photometric
stellar parameters.
