This repository is for the public version of the APOGEE KM dwarf catalog. The catalog is assocated with this paper. There is also a filtergraph portal available for examining simple plots.
APOGEE_KMdwarfs.fits: This is a catalog of 3834 late-K and early-M dwarfs (3500K < Teff < 4200K) that have relatively accurate (see paper) metallicities and Teffs from the SDSS APOGEE ASPCAP pipeline (discussed in this paper). It is cross-matched with SDSS, 2MASS, and WISE photometry, all of which have been corrected for extinction. Please look at the associated README file for definitions of each column, and see the associated paper for additional discussion. Generally, measurements are included whether they were considered "good" or "bad," so please pay attention to the various flags included.
