A-type stars in the Canada-France Imaging Survey II. Tracing the height of the disc at large distances with Blue Stragglers
Guillaume F. Thomas, Chervin F. P. Laporte, Alan W. McConnachie +7
We present the kinematics of Blue Straggler (BS) stars identified in the Canada-France-Imaging-Survey (CFIS), covering 4000 deg on the sky in the -band. The BS sample, chara…
A-type stars in the Canada-France Imaging Survey I. The stellar halo of the Milky Way traced to large radius by blue horizontal branch stars
Guillaume F. Thomas, Alan W. McConnachie, Rodrigo A. Ibata +14
We present the stellar density profile of the outer halo of the Galaxy traced over a range of Galactocentric radii from kpc by blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars…
Constraining the Milky Way Halo Potential with the GD-1 stellar stream
Khyati Malhan, Rodrigo A. Ibata
We use ESA/Gaia astrometry together with SEGUE and LAMOST measurements of the GD-1 stellar stream to explore the improvement on the Galactic gravitational potential that these new…
Phlegethon, a nearby -long retrograde stellar stream
Rodrigo A. Ibata, Khyati Malhan, Nicolas F. Martin +1
We report the discovery of a long stellar stream in Gaia DR2 catalog, found using the new STREAMFINDER algorithm. The structure is probably the remnant of a now fully disrupt…
STREAMFINDER II: A possible fanning structure parallel to the GD-1 stream in Pan-STARRS1
Khyati Malhan, Rodrigo A. Ibata, Bertrand Goldman +3
STREAMFINDER is a new algorithm that we have built to detect stellar streams in an automated and systematic way in astrophysical datasets that possess any combination of positional…
STREAMFINDER I: A New Algorithm for detecting Stellar Streams
Khyati Malhan, Rodrigo Ibata
We have designed a powerful new algorithm to detect stellar streams in an automated and systematic way. The algorithm, which we call the STREAMFINDER, is well suited for finding dy…
