A Study of Quasar Selection in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova fields

S. S. Tie, P. Martini, D. Mudd +75

We present a study of quasar selection using the DES supernova fields. We used a quasar catalog from an overlapping portion of the SDSS Stripe 82 region to quantify the completenes…

Farthest Neighbor: The Distant Milky Way Satellite Eridanus II

T. S. Li, J. D. Simon, A. Drlica-Wagner +56

We present Magellan/IMACS spectroscopy of the recently-discovered Milky Way satellite Eridanus II (Eri II). We identify 28 member stars in Eri II, from which we measure a systemic…
