A second-generation star in a relic dwarf galaxy

Anirudh Chiti, Vinicius M. Placco, Andrew B. Pace +22

Stars that contain only trace amounts of elements heavier than helium, referred to as having low "metallicity", preserve the chemical fingerprints of the first generation of stars…

DELVE-ing into the Milky Way's Globular Clusters: Assessing extra-tidal features in NGC 5897, NGC 7492, and testing detectability with deeper photometry

A. Chiti, K. Tavangar, P. S. Ferguson +22

Extra-tidal features around globular clusters (GCs) are tracers of their disruption, stellar stream formation, and their host's gravitational potential. However, these features rem…
