Chemodynamics of BoötesI with : Revised Velocity Gradient, Dark Matter Density, and Galactic Chemical Evolution Constraints

Nathan R. Sandford, Ting S. Li, Sergey E. Koposov +14

We combine new spectroscopic observations of the ultra faint dwarf galaxy (UFD) Boötes I (Boo I) from the Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopic Survey () with 15 year…

Measuring the Mass of the Large Magellanic Cloud with Stellar Streams Observed by

Nora Shipp, Denis Erkal, Alex Drlica-Wagner +16

Stellar streams are excellent probes of the underlying gravitational potential in which they evolve. In this work, we fit dynamical models to five streams in the Southern Galactic…

Flipping of the tidal tails of the Ophiuchus stream due to the decelerating Galactic bar

Yong Yang, Geraint F. Lewis, Denis Erkal +16

The Ophiuchus stellar stream presents a puzzle due to its complicated morphology, with a substructure perpendicular to the main track (spur), a broadened tail (fanning), and a shor…

Epicyclic Density Variations in the Indus Stellar Stream

Yong Yang, Geraint F. Lewis, Ting S. Li +12

Longitudinal density fluctuations observed in stellar streams can result from gravitational interactions with massive perturbers in the Milky Way, such as dark matter subhalos. Ana…

: The Orbital and Chemical Properties of One Dozen Stellar Streams

Ting S. Li, Alexander P. Ji, Andrew B. Pace +19

We report the kinematic, orbital, and chemical properties of 12 stellar streams with no evident progenitors, using line-of-sight velocities and metallicities from the Southern Stel…

Kinematics of Antlia 2 and Crater 2 from The Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopic Survey (S5)

Alexander P. Ji, Sergey E. Koposov, Ting S. Li +15

We present new spectroscopic observations of the diffuse Milky Way satellite galaxies Antlia 2 and Crater 2, taken as part of the Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopic Survey (S5).…
