Galaxy growth in a massive halo in the first billion years of cosmic history
D. P. Marrone, J. S. Spilker, C. C. Hayward +34
According to the current understanding of cosmic structure formation, the precursors of the most massive structures in the Universe began to form shortly after the Big Bang, in reg…
Star Cluster Formation in Cosmological Simulations. II. Effects of Star Formation Efficiency and Stellar Feedback
Hui Li, Oleg Y. Gnedin, Nickolay Y. Gnedin
The implementation of star formation and stellar feedback in cosmological simulations plays a critical role in shaping galaxy properties. In the first paper of the series, we prese…
Quasar Accretion Disk Sizes From Continuum Reverberation Mapping From the Dark Energy Survey
D. Mudd, P. Martini, Y. Zu +69
We present accretion disk size measurements for 15 luminous quasars at derived from light curves from the Dark Energy Survey. We measure the disk sizes…
Observational signatures of a warped disk associated with cold-flow accretion
Hadi Rahmani, Céline Péroux, Ramona Augustin +9
We present MUSE observations of the field of the quasar Q0152020 whose spectrum shows a Lyman limit system (LLS) at redshift , with a metallicity Z $\gtrsim…
The Behavior of Selected Diffuse Interstellar Bands with Molecular Fraction in Diffuse Atomic and Molecular Clouds
Haoyu Fan, Daniel E. Welty, Donald G. York +10
We study the behavior of eight diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) in different interstellar environments, as characterized by the fraction of hydrogen in molecular form [(H)]…
Deep SOAR follow-up photometry of two Milky Way outer-halo companions discovered with Dark Energy Survey
E. Luque, B. Santiago, A. Pieres +48
We report the discovery of a new star cluster, DES 3, in the constellation of Indus, and deeper observations of the previously identified satellite DES J0222.75217 (Eridanus III…
DES Science Portal: Computing Photometric Redshifts
Julia Gschwend, Aurelio Carnero Rosell, Ricardo Ogando +68
A significant challenge facing photometric surveys for cosmological purposes is the need to produce reliable redshift estimates. The estimation of photometric redshifts (photo-zs)…
DES15E2mlf: A Spectroscopically Confirmed Superluminous Supernova that Exploded 3.5 Gyr After the Big Bang
Y. -C. Pan, R. J. Foley, M. Smith +63
We present the Dark Energy Survey (DES) discovery of DES15E2mlf, the most distant superluminous supernova (SLSN) spectroscopically confirmed to date. The light curves and Gemini sp…
Milky Way Tomography with K and M Dwarf Stars: the Vertical Structure of the Galactic Disk
Deborah Ferguson, Susan Gardner, Brian Yanny
We use the number density distributions of K and M dwarf stars with vertical height from the Galactic disk, determined using observations from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, to prob…
Extreme variability quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Dark Energy Survey
Nick Rumbaugh, Yue Shen, Eric Morganson +49
We perform a systematic search for long-term extreme variability quasars (EVQs) in the overlapping Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and 3-Year Dark Energy Survey (DES) imaging, whic…
ISM properties of a Massive Dusty Star-Forming Galaxy discovered at z ~ 7
M. L. Strandet, A. Weiß, C. De Breuck +28
We report the discovery and constrain the physical conditions of the interstellar medium of the highest-redshift millimeter-selected dusty star-forming galaxy (DSFG) to date, SPT-S…
The physical origin of long gas depletion times in galaxies
Vadim A. Semenov, Andrey V. Kravtsov, Nickolay Y. Gnedin
We present a model that explains why galaxies form stars on a time scale significantly longer than the time scales of processes governing the evolution of interstellar gas. We show…
Candidate members of the Pal 5, GD-1, Cetus Polar, and Orphan tidal stellar halo streams from Sdss DR9, Lamost DR3 and APOGEE catalogues
Guang-Wei Li, Brian Yanny, Hao-Tong Zhang +8
We present candidate members of the Pal 5, GD-1, Cetus Polar, and Orphan tidal stellar streams found in LAMOST DR3, SDSS DR9 and APOGEE catalogs. In LAMOST DR3, we find 20, 4, 24 h…
Exploring Halo Substructure with Giant Stars. XV. Discovery of a Connection between the Monoceros Ring and the Triangulum-Andromeda Overdensity?
Ting S. Li, Allyson A. Sheffield, Kathryn V. Johnston +9
Thanks to modern sky surveys, over twenty stellar streams and overdensity structures have been discovered in the halo of the Milky Way. In this paper, we present an analysis of spe…
Models of the strongly lensed quasar DES J0408-5354
Adriano Agnello, Huan Lin, L. Buckley-Geer +82
We present gravitational lens models of the multiply imaged quasar DES J0408-5354, recently discovered in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) footprint, with the aim of interpreting its r…
Discovery of the Lensed Quasar System DES J0408-5354
H. Lin, E. Buckley-Geer, A. Agnello +78
We report the discovery and spectroscopic confirmation of the quad-like lensed quasar system DES J0408-5354 found in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 (Y1) data. This system was…
Environmental dependence of the galaxy stellar mass function in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data
J. Etherington, D. Thomas, C. Maraston +61
Measurements of the galaxy stellar mass function are crucial to understand the formation of galaxies in the Universe. In a hierarchical clustering paradigm it is plausible that the…
