On the Three-Dimensional Structure of Local Molecular Clouds
Catherine Zucker, Alyssa Goodman, João Alves +9
We leverage the 1 pc spatial resolution of the Leike et al. 2020 3D dust map to characterize the three-dimensional structure of nearby molecular clouds ( pc). We st…
Spatially Resolved Star Formation and Inside-out Quenching in the TNG50 Simulation and 3D-HST Observations
Erica J. Nelson, Sandro Tacchella, Benedikt Diemer +21
We compare the star forming main sequence (SFMS) -- both integrated and resolved on 1kpc scales -- between the high-resolution TNG50 simulation of IllustrisTNG and observations fro…
Orbital Clustering Identifies the Origins of Galactic Stellar Streams
Ana Bonaca, Rohan P. Naidu, Charlie Conroy +9
The origins of most stellar streams in the Milky Way are unknown. With improved proper motions provided by Gaia EDR3, we show that the orbits of 23 Galactic stellar streams are hig…
Stellar Population Inference with Prospector
Benjamin D. Johnson, Joel Leja, Charlie Conroy +1
Inference of the physical properties of stellar populations from observed photometry and spectroscopy is a key goal in the study of galaxy evolution. In recent years the quality an…
Inferring the Morphology of Stellar Distribution in TNG50: Twisted and Twisted-Stretched shapes
Razieh Emami, Lars Hernquist, Charles Alcock +9
We investigate the morphology of the stellar distribution in a sample of Milky Way (MW) like galaxies in the TNG50 simulation. Using a local in shell iterative method (LSIM) as the…
Ancient Very Metal-Poor Stars Associated With the Galactic Disk in the H3 Survey
Courtney Carter, Charlie Conroy, Dennis Zaritsky +8
Ancient, very metal-poor stars offer a window into the earliest epochs of galaxy formation and assembly. We combine data from the H3 Spectroscopic Survey and Gaia to measure metall…
