The NANOGrav 11-Year Data Set: Limits on Gravitational Waves from Individual Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

K. Aggarwal, Z. Arzoumanian, P. T. Baker +60

Observations indicate that nearly all galaxies contain supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at their centers. When galaxies merge, their component black holes form SMBH binaries (SMBHB…

Chemical Abundance Analysis of Tucana III, the Second -process Enhanced Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy

J. L. Marshall, T. Hansen, J. D. Simon +56

We present a chemical abundance analysis of four additional confirmed member stars of Tucana III, a Milky Way satellite galaxy candidate in the process of being tidally disrupted a…

Chemical Abundances in the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxies Grus I and Triangulum II: Neutron-Capture Elements as a Defining Feature of the Faintest Dwarfs

Alexander P. Ji, Joshua D. Simon, Anna Frebel +2

We present high-resolution of spectroscopy of four stars in two candidate ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) Grus I (Gru I) and Triangulum II (Tri II). Neither object currently has…

The initial mass function in the Coma Berenices dwarf galaxy from deep near-infrared HST observations

Mario Gennaro, Marla Geha, Kirill Tchernyshyov +6

We use deep WFC3/IR imaging to study the Initial Mass Function (IMF) of the ultra faint dwarf galaxy Coma Berenices (Com Ber). Our observations reach the lowest stellar mass…

A MegaCam Survey of Outer Halo Satellites. III. Photometric and Structural Parameters

Ricardo R. Munoz, Patrick Cote, Felipe A. Santana +5

We present structural parameters from a wide-field homogeneous imaging survey of Milky Way satellites carried out with the MegaCam imagers on the 3.6m Canada-France-Hawaii Telescop…
