SUMMARY:SDSS at the IAC. Ongoing SDSS-III science and SDSS-IV planning: APO
 GEE-2, eBOSS, MaNGA, TDSS and SPIDERS
DESCRIPTION:SDSS at the IAC. Ongoing SDSS-III science and SDSS-IV planning:
  APOGEE-2, eBOSS, MaNGA, TDSS and SPIDERS\nDr. Carlos Allende, Dr. Ismael 
 Pérez Forunon\n\nThe IAC is the only Spanish Institution participating as
  a full member in SDSS-III (2009-2014). The survey finishes in June 2014, 
 and will publicly release all data by the end of the year, including H-ban
 d high-resolution spectra for 100,000 stars in the Milky Way and optical m
 id-resolution spectra for 1.5 million LRGs and 160,000 quasars.\nSDSS-IV  
 will immediately follow, including spectroscopic surveys of variable sourc
 es, x-ray source  follow-up observations, galaxy and quasar redshifts, Int
 egral-field-unit spectroscopy of galaxies and high-resolution infrared spe
 ctroscopy of galactic stars, organized in the following projects: Time-Dom
 ain Spectroscopic Survey (TDSS), SPectroscopic IDentification of ERosita S
 ources (SPIDERS), Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS)
 , Mapping Nearby Galaxies at APO (MaNGA), and the APO Galaxy Evolution Exp
 eriment 2 (APOGEE-2).\nThe participation of the IAC in SDSS is gaining str
 ength. As an example, in the first half of 2013, about 13% of the papers p
 ublished by IAC researchers used SDSS data, and these papers contributed 3
 3% of the citations received by the IAC in the same period.  We will provi
 de an overview of SDSS activities at the IAC, and current plans for partic
 ipating in SDSS-IV (2014-2020).
