Extragalactic Stellar Streams in Time-Dependent Cosmological Halos
Sarah Pearson, Jacob Nibauer, Emily C. Cunningham +4
Upcoming and ongoing surveys will detect thousands of stellar streams around galaxies other than the Milky Way. Studies from the Milky Way have shown that time-dependent evolution…
Kinematic Signatures in the Stellar Halo from Cosmological Encounters between the Milky Way and its Clouds
Mia Mansfield, Robyn Sanderson, Daniel Hey +4
Recent theoretical and observational analysis of the interaction between the Milky Way (MW) and LMC suggest that it has a significant dynamical impact on the MW's stellar halo. We…
Shaping the Milky Way. II. The dark matter halo's response to the LMC's passage in a cosmological context
Elise Darragh-Ford, Nicolas Garavito-Camargo, Arpit Arora +15
The distribution of dark matter in the Milky Way (MW) is expected to exhibit a large-scale dynamical response to the recent infall of the LMC. This event produces a dynamical frict…
Dancing Streams In Merging Halos: Stellar Streams in a MW--LMC-like merger
Sachi Weerasooriya, Tjitske Starkenburg, Emily C. Cunningham +1
Stellar streams -- formed from tidally stripped globular clusters or dwarf galaxies -- are sensitive tracers of a galaxy's accretion history and gravitational potential. While nume…
Strong Chemical Tagging in FIRE: Intra and Inter-Cluster Chemical Homogeneity in Open Clusters in Milky Way-like Galaxy Simulations
Binod Bhattarai, Sarah R. Loebman, Melissa K. Ness +4
Open star clusters are the essential building blocks of the Galactic disk; "strong chemical tagging" - the premise that all star clusters can be reconstructed given chemistry infor…
Efficient and accurate force replay in cosmological-baryonic simulations
Arpit Arora, Robyn Sanderson, Christopher Regan +8
We construct time-evolving gravitational potential models for a Milky Way-mass galaxy from the FIRE-2 suite of cosmological-baryonic simulations using basis function expansions. Th…
