cds-question@unistra.frsurveysdwarf-starsm-starsradial-velocityWe are carrying out a large ancillary program with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, SDSS-III, using the fiber-fed multi-object near-infrared APOGEE spectrograph, to obtain high-resolution H-band spectra of more than 1200 M dwarfs. These observations will be used to measure spectroscopic rotational velocities, radial velocities, physical stellar parameters, and variability of the target stars. Here, we describe the target selection for this survey, as well as results from the first year of scientific observations based on spectra that will be publicly available in the SDSS-III DR10 data release. As part of this paper we present radial velocities and rotational velocities of over 200 M dwarfs, with a vsini precision of ~2km/s and a measurement floor at vsini=4km/s. This survey significantly increases the number of M dwarfs studied for rotational velocities and radial velocity variability (at ~100-200m/s), and will inform and advance the target selection for planned radial velocity and photometric searches for low-mass exoplanets around M dwarfs, such as the Habitable Zone Planet Finder, CARMENES, and TESS. Multiple epochs of radial velocity observations enable us to identify short period binaries, and adaptive optics imaging of a subset of stars enables the detection of possible stellar companions at larger separations. The high-resolution APOGEE spectra, covering the entire H band, provide the opportunity to measure physical stellar parameters such as effective temperatures and metallicities for many of these stars. At the culmination of this survey, we will have obtained multi-epoch spectra and radial velocities for over 1400 stars spanning the spectral range M0-L0, providing the largest set of near-infrared M dwarf spectra at high resolution, and more than doubling the number of known spectroscopic vsini values for M dwarfs. Furthermore, by modeling telluric lines to correct for small instrumental radial velocity shifts, we hope to achieve a relative velocity precision floor of 50m/s for bright M dwarfs. With three or more epochs, this precision is adequate to detect substellar companions, including giant planets with short orbital periods, and flag them for higher-cadence followup. We present preliminary, and promising, results of this telluric modeling technique in this paper.2013AJ....146..156Dhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/146/156CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toI/298 : LSPM-North Catalog (Lepine+ 2005)II/246 : 2MASS All-Sky Catalog of Point Sources (Cutri+ 2003)J/AJ/142/138 : All-sky catalog of bright M dwarfs (Lepine+, 2011)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/146/156https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/146/156http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/146/156https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/146/156https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/146/156http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/146/156GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/AJ/146/156/table1 (Targets observed during the first year of the APOGEE M-dwarf survey)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/146/156/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/146/156/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/146/156/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true0.933083386.11172220.0055555555555555566/462 472 496 1299 1304 1414 1416 1433 1696 1697 1768 1773 1781 1789 1930 1953 1965 1968 1970 1973 1980 2014 2535 2545 2970 2972 2980 2981 2997 2999 3045 3059 3061 3187 3235 3238 3239 3263 3269 3280 3327 3498 3635 3640 3755 3768 3773 3810 3818 3857 3858 3859 3860 3862 3943 3947 3951 4073 4077 4078 4079 4088 4253 4255 4932 4944 5084 5105 5106 5343 5367 5688 5959 6365 6367 6382 6400 6690 6721 9189 9200 9202 9431 9433 9437 9438 9579 10008 10011 10123 10271 10312 10314 10321 10332 10337 10459 10484 10672 10676 12383 12405 12904 12940 12941 12958 12982 13751 13757 13800 14005 14006 14011 14016 14050 14101 14262 14266 14375 14467 14470 14477 14482 14567 14575 14579 14582 14583 14585 14586 14589 14731 14752 14753 14755 14777 14781 14783 14825 14826 14830 14939 14942 14964 14966 14967 14968 14971 14972 15109 15126 15129 15379 15382 15383 15385 15420 15502 15514 15634 19094 21475 22221 22231 22377 22401 23768 23939 23943 23953 24223 24244 24266 24288 24292 24305 24426 24434 24435 24459 24473 24528 25875 26266 26277 26288 26919 26972 26974 27228 27252 27426 27484 27509 27635 27643 27671 27889 27890 27895 27897 27901 27946 27971 27980 28066 28067 28072 28291 28296 28480 28483 28486 29564 29565 30450 30451 30454 30457 31396 31397 31417 31751 317568.650015785639275e-20 1.7003137259100215e-19https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/AJ/146/156?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/AJ/146/156/table1Targets observed during the first year of the APOGEE M-dwarf surveyrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
