DELVE Milky Way Satellite Galaxy Census I: Satellite Population and Survey Selection Function in DES, DELVE, and Pan-STARRS
C. Y. Tan, A. Drlica-Wagner, A. B. Pace +84
The properties of Milky Way satellite galaxies have important implications for galaxy formation, reionization, and the fundamental physics of dark matter. However, the population o…
The NGC3109 Satellite System: The First Systematic Resolved Search for Dwarf Galaxies Around a SMC-mass Host
Amandine Doliva-Dolinsky, Burçin Mutlu-Pakdil, Denija Crnojević +38
We report the results of the deepest search to date for dwarf galaxies around NGC3109, a barred spiral galaxy with a mass similar to that of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), using…
A Pride of Satellites in the Constellation Leo? Discovery of the Leo VI Milky Way Satellite Galaxy with DELVE Early Data Release 3
C. Y. Tan, W. Cerny, A. Drlica-Wagner +32
We report the discovery and spectroscopic confirmation of an ultra-faint Milky Way (MW) satellite in the constellation of Leo. This system was discovered as a spatial overdensity o…
High-quality Extragalactic Legacy-field Monitoring (HELM) with DECam
Ming-Yang Zhuang, Qian Yang, Yue Shen +45
High-quality Extragalactic Legacy-field Monitoring (HELM) is a long-term observing program that photometrically monitors several well-studied extragalactic legacy fields with the D…
Optical Variability of Quasars with 20-Year Photometric Light Curves
Zachary Stone, Yue Shen, Colin J. Burke +52
We study the optical photometric variability of a sample of 190 quasars within the SDSS Stripe 82 region that have long-term photometric coverage during with…
RR Lyrae stars in the newly discovered ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Centaurus I
C. E. Martínez-Vázquez, W. Cerny, A. K. Vivas +22
We report the detection of three RR Lyrae (RRL) stars (two RRc and one RRab) in the ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxy Centaurus I (CenI) and two Milky Way (MW) Scuti/SX Phoenicis…
DELVE-ing into the Jet: a thin stellar stream on a retrograde orbit at 30 kpc
Peter Ferguson, Nora Shipp, Alex Drlica-Wagner +20
We perform a detailed photometric and astrometric analysis of stars in the Jet stream using data from the first data release of the DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey (DELVE) DR…
The DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey: Overview and First Data Release
A. Drlica-Wagner, J. L. Carlin, D. L. Nidever +67
The DECam Local Volume Exploration survey (DELVE) is a 126-night survey program on the 4-m Blanco Telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile. DELVE seeks to…
Two Ultra-Faint Milky Way Stellar Systems Discovered in Early Data from the DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey
S. Mau, W. Cerny, A. B. Pace +56
We report the discovery of two ultra-faint stellar systems found in early data from the DECam Local Volume Exploration survey (DELVE). The first system, Centaurus I (DELVE J1238-40…
