Dwarf AGNs from Optical Variability for the Origins of Seeds (DAVOS): Insights from the Dark Energy Survey Deep Fields

Colin J. Burke, Xin Liu, Yue Shen +69

We present a sample of 706, active galactic nuclei (AGNs) selected from optical photometric variability in three of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) deep fields (E2, C3, and…

: 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…

From the Fire: A Deeper Look at the Phoenix Stream

K. Tavangar, P. Ferguson, N. Shipp +64

We use six years of data from the Dark Energy Survey to perform a detailed photometric characterization of the Phoenix stellar stream, a 15-degree long, thin, dynamically cold, low…

Signature of a massive rotating metal-poor star imprinted in the Phoenix stellar stream

Andrew R. Casey, Alexander P. Ji, Terese T. Hansen +13

The Phoenix stellar stream has a low intrinsic dispersion in velocity and metallicity that implies the progenitor was probably a low mass globular cluster. In this work we use Mage…

Multi-wavelength Optical and NIR Variability Analysis of the Blazar PKS 0027-426

E. Guise, S. F. Hönig, T. Almeyda +62

We present multi-wavelength spectral and temporal variability analysis of PKS 0027-426 using optical griz observations from DES (Dark Energy Survey) between 2013-2018 and VOILETTE…

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…
