We construct a sample of nearly 30,000 main-sequence stars with 4500K $<Trm_{eff}<$ 5000K and stellar ages estimated by the chromospheric activity$-$age relation. This sample is used to determine the age distribution in the $R-Z$ plane of the Galaxy, where $R$ is the projected Galactocentric distance in the disk midplane and $Z$ is the height above the disk midplane. As $|Z|$ increases, the percentage of old stars becomes larger. It is known that scale-height of Galactic disk increases as $R$ increases, which is called flare. A mild flare from $R$ $sim$ 8.0 to 9.0 kpc in stellar age distribution is found. We also find that the velocity dispersion increases with age as confirmed by previous studies. Finally we present spiral-shaped structures in $Z-upsilon_{Z}$ phase space in three stellar age bins. The spiral is clearly seen in the age bin of [0, 1] Gyr, which suggests that a vertical perturbation to the disk probably took place within the last $sim$ 1.0 Gyr.

We present the data release (DR) 5 catalogue of white dwarf-main sequence (WDMS) binaries from the Large Area Multi-Object fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST). The catalogue contains 876 WDMS binaries, of which 757 are additions to our previous LA
MOST DR1 sample and 357 are systems that have not been published before. We also describe a LAMOST-dedicated survey that aims at obtaining spectra of photometrically-selected WDMS binaries from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) that are expected to contain cool white dwarfs and/or early type M dwarf companions. This is a population under-represented in previous SDSS WDMS binary catalogues. We determine the stellar parameters (white dwarf effective temperatures, surface gravities and masses, and M dwarf spectral types) of the LAMOST DR5 WDMS binaries and make use of the parameter distributions to analyse the properties of the sample. We find that, despite our efforts, systems containing cool white dwarfs remain under-represented. Moreover, we make use of LAMOST DR5 and SDSS DR14 (when available) spectra to measure the Na I {lambda}{lambda} 8183.27, 8194.81 absorption doublet and/or H{alpha} emission radial velocities of our systems. This allows identifying 128 binaries displaying significant radial velocity variations, 76 of which are new. Finally, we cross-match our catalogue with the Catalina Surveys and identify 57 systems displaying light curve variations. These include 16 eclipsing systems, two of which are new, and nine binaries that are new eclipsing candidates. We calculate periodograms from the photometric data and measure (estimate) the orbital periods of 30 (15) WDMS binaries.
We revisit the diagonal ridge feature (diagonal distributions in the $R, v_{phi}$ plane) found in $Gaia$ and present timing analysis for it between Galactocentric distances of $R=7.5$ and 12 ,kpc, using Main-Sequence-Turn-Off and OB stars selected fr
om the LAMOST Galactic spectroscopic surveys. We recover the ridge pattern in the $R$--$v_{phi}$ plane color coded by mean radial velocity and find this feature is presented from very young (OB stars, few hundred ,Myr) to very old populations ($tau$ = 9$-$14 ,Gyr). Meanwhile, some ridge features are also revealed in the metallicity [Fe/H], [$alpha$/Fe] and $v_{z}$ distributions. In the $L_{Z}, v_{phi}$ plane, one of the ridge patterns, with constant angular momentum per unit mass, shows variations with different age populations compared. However, the remaining two ones are relatively stable, implying there might have two kinds of ridge patterns with different dynamical origins and evolution.
We estimate the solar peculiar velocities and Oort constants using a sample of 5,627 A-type stars with $d<0.6,rm kpc$ and $|z|<0.1,rm kpc$, selected from the LAMOST surveys. The radial and tangential velocities of these A-type stars are fitted by usi
ng a non-axisymmetric model. The best-fitting result yields the solar peculiar velocities $(U_odot,V_odot,W_odot)=(11.69pm0.68, 10.16pm0.51, 7.67pm0.10),rm km,s^{-1}$ and Oort constants $A=16.31pm0.89,rm km,s^{-1},kpc^{-1}$, $B=-11.99pm0.79,rm km,s^{-1},kpc^{-1}$, $C=-3.10pm0.48,rm km,s^{-1},kpc^{-1}$, $K=-1.25pm1.04,rm km,s^{-1},kpc^{-1}$, respectively. $|K+C|>4,rm km,s^{-1},kpc^{-1}$ means that there is a radial velocity gradient in the extended local disk, implying the local disk is in a non-asymmetric potential. Using the derived Oort constants, we derive the local angular velocity $Omega,{approx},A-B=28.30pm1.19,rm km,s^{-1},kpc^{-1}$. By using A-type star sample of different volumes, we further try to evaluate the impacts of the ridge pattern in $R$-$V_{phi}$ plane on constraining the solar motions and Oort constants. As the volume becomes larger toward the anti-center direction, the values of $A$ and $B$ become larger (implying a steeper slope of the local rotation curve) and the value of $V_odot$ becomes smaller probably caused by the ridge structure and its signal increasing with distance.
We present a method to estimate distances to stars with spectroscopically derived stellar parameters. The technique is a Bayesian approach with likelihood estimated via comparison of measured parameters to a grid of stellar isochrones, and returns a
posterior probability density function for each stars absolute magnitude. This technique is tailored specifically to data from the Large Sky Area Multi-object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) survey. Because LAMOST obtains roughly 3000 stellar spectra simultaneously within each ~5-degree diameter plate that is observed, we can use the stellar parameters of the observed stars to account for the stellar luminosity function and target selection effects. This removes biasing assumptions about the underlying populations, both due to predictions of the luminosity function from stellar evolution modeling, and from Galactic models of stellar populations along each line of sight. Using calibration data of stars with known distances and stellar parameters, we show that our method recovers distances for most stars within ~20%, but with some systematic overestimation of distances to halo giants. We apply our code to the LAMOST database, and show that the current precision of LAMOST stellar parameters permits measurements of distances with ~40% error bars. This precision should improve as the LAMOST data pipelines continue to be refined.
We study the sodium D lines (D1: 5895.92 AA; D2: 5889.95 AA) in late-type dwarf stars. The stars have spectral types between F6 and M5.5 (B-V between 0.457 and 1.807) and metallicity between [Fe/H] = -0.82 and 0.6. We obtained medium resolution echel
le spectra using the 2.15-m telescope at the argentinian observatory CASLEO. The observations have been performed periodically since 1999. The spectra were calibrated in wavelength and in flux. A definition of the pseudo-continuum level is found for all our observations. We also define a continuum level for calibration purposes. The equivalent width of the D lines is computed in detail for all our spectra and related to the colour index (B-V) of the stars. When possible, we perform a careful comparison with previous studies. Finally, we construct a spectral index (R_D) as the ratio between the flux in the D lines, and the bolometric flux. We find that, once corrected for the photospheric contribution, this index can be used as a chromospheric activity indicator in stars with a high level of activity. Additionally, we find that combining some of our results, we obtain a method to calibrate in flux stars of unknown colour.
