Draco -- A Failure of the Tidal Model
Ralf Klessen, Eva Grebel, Daniel Harbeck
We test whether the structural properties of the nearby dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy Draco, a well-studied Milky Way companion, can be reconciled with the suggestion that dSphs a…
The Nineteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
SDSS Collaboration, Gautham Adamane Pallathadka, Mojgan Aghakhanloo +209
Mapping the local and distant Universe is key to our understanding of it. For decades, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has made a concerted effort to map millions of celestial…
The RAVE Survey: Rich in Very Metal-Poor Stars
Jon P. Fulbright, Rosemary F. G. Wyse, Gregory R. Ruchti +20
Very metal-poor stars are of obvious importance for many problems in chemical evolution, star formation, and galaxy evolution. Finding complete samples of such stars which are also…
Galactic Dynamics and Local Dark Matter
Steven R. Majewski, James Bullock, Andreas Burkert +13
The concordance Lambda Cold Dark Matter (Lambda-CDM) model for the formation of structure in the Universe, while remarkably successful at describing observations of structure on la…
Tracing the tidal streams of the Sagittarius dSph, and halo Milky Way features, with carbon-rich long-period variables
Avon Huxor, Eva Grebel
We assemble 121 spectroscopically-confirmed halo carbon stars, drawn from the literature, exhibiting measurable variability in the Catalina Surveys. We present their periods and am…
The Next Generation Fornax Survey (NGFS): V. Discovery of a dwarf-dwarf galaxy pair at z=0.30 and its characterization using deep VLT/MUSE observations
Evelyn J. Johnston, Paul Eigenthaler, Thomas Puzia +11
We report the detection of a pair of dwarf galaxies at which may be in the early stages of an interaction. Both galaxies have stellar masses of , and d…
