Gaia GraL: Gaia DR2 Gravitational Lens Systems. VI. Spectroscopic Confirmation and Modeling of Quadruply-Imaged Lensed Quasars
D. Stern, S. G. Djorgovski, A. Krone-Martins +23
Combining the exquisite angular resolution of Gaia with optical light curves and WISE photometry, the Gaia Gravitational Lenses group (GraL) uses machine learning techniques to ide…
An extended halo around an ancient dwarf galaxy
Anirudh Chiti, Anna Frebel, Joshua D. Simon +7
The Milky Way is surrounded by dozens of ultra-faint (< solar luminosities) dwarf satellite galaxies. They are the surviving remnants of the earliest galaxies, as confirmed…
Eridanus II: A Fossil from Reionization with an Off-Center Star Cluster
Joshua D. Simon, Thomas M. Brown, Alex Drlica-Wagner +10
We present deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) photometry of the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Eridanus II (Eri II). Eri II, which has an absolute magnitude of M_V = -7.1, is located at a…
A Deeper Look at DES Dwarf Galaxy Candidates: Grus I and Indus II
Sarah A. Cantu, Andrew B. Pace, Jennifer Marshall +11
We present deep - and -band Magellan/Megacam photometry of two dwarf galaxy candidates discovered in the Dark Energy Survey (DES), Grus I and Indus II (DES J2038-4609). For t…
Multiple Chemodynamic Stellar Populations of the Ursa Minor Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy
Andrew B. Pace, Manoj Kaplinghat, Evan Kirby +6
We present a Bayesian method to identify multiple (chemodynamic) stellar populations in dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) using velocity, metallicity, and positional stellar data w…
