Detailed near-IR stellar abundances of red giants in the Inner Bulge and
  Galactic Center
  Owing to their extreme crowding and high and variable extinction, stars in
the Galactic Bulge, within +-2 degrees of the Galactic plane, and especially
those in the Nuclear Star Cluster, have only rarely been targeted for an
analyses of their detailed abundances. There is also some disagreement about
the high end of the abundance scale for these stars. It is now possible to
obtain high dispersion, high S/N spectra in the infrared K band (2.0-2.4
microns) for these giants; we report our progress at Keck and VLT in using
these spectra to infer the composition of this stellar population.
