Identifying and Determining Atmospheric Parameters of BHB Stars Based on LAMOST DR11

Large catalogs of blue horizontal-branch (BHB) stars are essential for studying substructures and kinematics of the Galactic halo. And accurate determination of atmospheric parameters for BHB stars provides insight into stellar evolution. In this work, we perform a systematic search for BHB stars based on LAMOST DR11, and identify $13\,988$ BHB spectra, corresponding to $10\,236$ unique BHB stars. We estimate an identification rate of $\sim80\%-90\%$, and a contamination rate of $\lesssim10\%$ for our sample. Atmospheric parameters for these BHB stars are estimated via the data-driven method named the Stellar LAbel Machine (SLAM). We demonstrate the necessity of including color indices in the spectral labeling to effectively break the degeneracy between effective temperature and surface gravity. We note a bump in the distribution of [Fe/H], and most of these metal-rich BHB stars belong to the disk population. We also provide a list of 4282 blue straggler (BS) stars with determined atmospheric parameters.

LAMOST medium-resolution spectroscopic survey of binarity and exotic star (LAMOST-MRS-B): Observation strategy and target selection

LAMOST-MRS-B is one of the sub-surveys of LAMOST medium-resolution (R~7500) spectroscopic survey. It aims at studying the statistical properties (e.g., binary fraction, orbital period distribution, mass ratio distribution) of binary stars and exotic stars. We intend to observe about 30000 stars (10 mag <= G <= 14.5 mag) with at least 10 visits in five years. We first planned to observe 25 plates around the galactic plane in 2018. Then the plates were reduced to 12 in 2019 because of the limitation of observation. At the same time, two new plates located at the high galactic latitude were added to explore binary properties influenced by the different environments. In this survey project, we set the identified exotic and low-metallicity stars with the highest observation priorities. For the rest of the selected stars, we gave higher priority to the relatively brighter stars in order to obtain high-quality spectra as many as possible. Spectra of 49129 stars have been obtained in LAMOST-MRS-B field and released in DR8, of which 28828 and 3375 stars have been visited more than twice and ten times with SNR >= 10, respectively. Most of the sources are B-, A-, and F-type stars with 0.6 < [Fe/H] < 0.4 dex. We also obtain 347 identified variable and exotic stars and about 250 stars with [Fe/H] < 1 dex. We measure radial velocities (RVs) by using 892233 spectra of the stars. The uncertainties of RV achieve about 1 km/s and 10 km/s1 for 95% of late- and early-type stars, respectively. The datasets presented in this paper are available at http://www.doi.org/10.57760/sciencedb.j00113.00035.

Mesoscopic chaos mediated by Drude electron-hole plasma in silicon optomechanical oscillators

Chaos has revolutionized the field of nonlinear science and stimulated foundational studies from neural networks, extreme event statistics, to physics of electron transport. Recent studies in cavity optomechanics provide a new platform to uncover quintessential architectures of chaos generation and the underlying physics. Here we report the generation of dynamical chaos in silicon-based monolithic optomechanical oscillators, enabled by the strong and coupled nonlinearities of two-photon-absorption induced Drude electron-hole plasma. Deterministic chaotic oscillation is achieved, and statistical and entropic characterization quantifies the chaos complexity at 60 fJ intracavity energies. The correlation dimension D2 is determined at 1.67 for the chaotic attractor, along with maximal Lyapunov exponent rate about 2.94 the fundamental optomechanical oscillation for fast adjacent trajectory divergence. Nonlinear dynamical maps demonstrate the subharmonics, bifurcations, and stable regimes, along with distinct transitional routes into chaos. This provides a CMOS-compatible and scalable architecture for understanding complex dynamics on the mesoscopic scale.
