Quantifying the Stellar Halo's Response to the LMC's Infall with Spherical Harmonics
Emily C. Cunningham, Nicolas Garavito-Camargo, Alis J. Deason +6
The vast majority of the mass in the Milky Way (MW) is in dark matter (DM); we therefore cannot directly observe the MW mass distribution, and have to use tracer populations in ord…
Fluctuations in galactic bar parameters due to bar-spiral interaction
T. Hilmi, I. Minchev, T. Buck +10
We study the late-time evolution of the central regions of two Milky Way-like simulations of galaxies formed in a cosmological context, one hosting a fast bar and the other a slow…
Chemo-dynamical properties of the Anticenter Stream: a surviving disc fossil from a past satellite interaction
Chervin F. P. Laporte, Vasily Belokurov, Sergey E. Koposov +2
Using Gaia DR2, we trace the Anticenter Stream (ACS) in various stellar populations across the sky and find that it is kinematically and spatially decoupled from the Monoceros Ring…
The Implications of Local Fluctuations in the Galactic Midplane for Dynamical Analysis in the Gaia Era
Angus Beane, Robyn E. Sanderson, Melissa K. Ness +6
Orbital properties of stars, computed from their six-dimensional phase space measurements and an assumed Galactic potential, are used to understand the structure and evolution of t…
The Detailed Science Case for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer, 2019 edition
The MSE Science Team, Carine Babusiaux, Maria Bergemann +258
(Abridged) The Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE) is an end-to-end science platform for the design, execution and scientific exploitation of spectroscopic surveys. It will unvei…
Astrophysical Tests of Dark Matter with Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer
Ting S. Li, Manoj Kaplinghat, Keith Bechtol +27
We discuss how astrophysical observations with the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE), a high-multiplexity (about 4300 fibers), wide field-of-view (1.5 square degree), large tel…
