Final results for mapping the Milky Way's stellar halo with blue horizontal-branch stars selected from the Subaru Hyper Supreme-Cam Survey

Tetsuya Fukushima, Masashi Chiba, Mikito Tanaka +7

We select blue-horizontal branch stars (BHBs) from the internal data release of the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program to reveal the global structure of the Milky Way (MW)…

The Progenitor of the Peculiar Galaxy NGC3077

Sakurako Okamoto, Nobuo Arimoto, Annette M. N. Ferguson +2

We present a study of the structural properties and metallicity distribution of the nearby peculiar galaxy NGC3077. Using data from our survey of the M81 Group with the Hyper Supri…

A Tale of a Tail: A Tidally-Disrupting Ultra-Diffuse Galaxy in the M81 Group

Rokas Žemaitis, Annette M. N. Ferguson, Sakurako Okamoto +4

We present the discovery of a giant tidal tail of stars associated with F8D1, the closest known example of an ultra-diffuse galaxy (UDG). F8D1 sits in a region of the sky heavily c…

Narrowband Ca Photometry for Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies. I. Chemostructural Study on Draco, Sextans, and Canes Venatici I

Sang-Il Han, Hak-Sub Kim, Suk-Jin Yoon +4

A few dozen dwarf satellite galaxies of the Milky Way have been discovered, which are often viewed as the remaining building blocks of our Galaxy. The follow-up spectroscopy showed…

Globular Clusters in Coma Cluster Ultra Diffuse Galaxies (UDGs): Evidence for Two Types of UDG?

Duncan A. Forbes, Adebusola Alabi, Aaron J. Romanowsky +2

Ultra diffuse galaxies (UDGs) reveal extreme properties. Here we compile the largest study to date of 85 globular cluster (GC) systems around UDGs in the Coma cluster, using new de…

Stellar population and structural properties of dwarf galaxies and young stellar systems in the M81 group

Sakurako Okamoto, Nobuo Arimoto, Annette M. N. Ferguson +3

We use Hyper Suprime-Cam on the Subaru Telescope to investigate the structural and photometric properties of early-type dwarf galaxies and young stellar systems at the center of th…
