The Pristine survey XXIX. Data Release 2: Photometric metallicities for 15 millions stars down to

Zhen Yuan, Anke Ardern-Arentsen, Nicolas F. Martin +15

Tailored narrow-band photometric observations are an efficient way to measure the metallicity of Milky Way stars. The Pristine survey has been mapping the northern sky since 2015 u…

EROSE: An algorithm searching for resolved Local Group satellites. The impact of combining different photometric bands on the detectability of Milky Way satellites in the LSST

Samuel Rusterucci, Nicolas F. Martin, Else Starkenburg

Systematic searches for ultra-faint Milky Way satellite galaxies typically combine local density estimators with colour-magnitude cuts, which are usually performed in 2D and have r…

Characterizing the disruption of Böotes III: a missing link in the Galactic halo?

Jaclyn Jensen, Daniel A. Boyea, Alan W. McConnachie +14

The Böotes III (Boo3) dwarf galaxy has long been suspected of being the progenitor of Styx, a ~50°-long stellar stream that was simultaneously discovered in the same region of sky.…

The Pristine Dwarf Galaxy Survey -- VII. The metallicity distributions of 12 Milky Way faint satellites

S. Taibi, P. Jablonka, N. Longeard +10

Spectroscopic studies of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies are typically limited to small samples of stars due to the scarcity of sufficiently bright targets. The small number statistics…

Galactic Archaeology with the Subaru `Ōnohi`ula Prime Focus Spectrograph Strategic Program

Masashi Chiba, Rosemary F. G. Wyse, Evan N. Kirby +48

The recently commissioned Subaru `Ōnohi`ula Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) will obtain spectra from nearly 2,400 fibers that cover 1.24 square degrees. The 360 night Subaru Strateg…

The primordial nature of the C-19 stellar stream

Kim A. Venn, Zhen Yuan, Nicolas F. Martin +32

Stellar streams, remnants of compact star systems stretched out by the tidal forces of the Milky Way, offer a unique way to study stellar populations that formed billions of years…
