The Dark Energy Camera All Data Everywhere cosmic shear project V: Constraints on cosmology and astrophysics from 270 million galaxies across 13,000 deg of the sky
D. Anbajagane, C. Chang, A. Drlica-Wagner +78
The paper presents cosmological and astrophysical constraints derived from cosmic shear measurements of 270 million galaxies covering 13,000 deg², combining data from the DECADE pr…
It's Not Just Star Formation: A trend of low dark matter densities in the Andromeda dwarf galaxy system
Connor S. Pickett, Michelle L. M. Collins, Justin I. Read +8
Dynamical mass modeling of Andromeda (M31) dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies has revealed a growing trend of lower central dark matter (DM) densities than predicted by pure DM struc…
The DECam MAGIC Survey Mapping the Ancient Galaxy in CaHK: Overview and Summary of Early Science
A. Chiti, A. Drlica-Wagner, A. B. Pace +42
We present the DECam Mapping the Ancient Galaxy in CaHK (MAGIC) survey, a 54-night NOIRLab Survey Program to image 5,000deg of the southern hemisphere using a meta…
Hubble Astrometry for the Local Group and Beyond in the 2030s
S. Tony Sohn, Paul Bennet, Kevin Andrew McKinnon +23
Hubble's long, stable astrometric baseline creates a rare opportunity for discovery in the Local Group and beyond. Many nearby galaxies, streams, and star clusters already have arc…
DELVE Milky Way Satellite Galaxy Census I: Satellite Population and Survey Selection Function in DES, DELVE, and Pan-STARRS
C. Y. Tan, A. Drlica-Wagner, A. B. Pace +84
The properties of Milky Way satellite galaxies have important implications for galaxy formation, reionization, and the fundamental physics of dark matter. However, the population o…
Ultra-Faint Milky Way Satellites Discovered in Carina, Phoenix, and Telescopium with DELVE Data Release 3
C. Y. Tan, W. Cerny, A. B. Pace +76
We report the discovery of three Milky Way satellite candidates: Carina IV, Phoenix III, and DELVE 7, in the third data release of the DECam Local Volume Exploration survey (DELVE)…
