Is Crater II disrupting?

A. Katherina Vivas, Alistair Walker, Clara Martínez-Vázquez +5

Crater~II (CraII) is a very intriguing, low-surface brightness and extended galaxy in the vicinity of our Milky Way. Motivated by its huge area and the number of RR Lyrae stars (RR…

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…

An outer-disk SX Phe variable star in Rubin Data Preview 1

Jeffrey L. Carlin, Peter S. Ferguson, A. Katherina Vivas +2

We report the discovery of an SX Phoenicis-type pulsating variable star via 217 epochs of time-series photometry from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Data Preview 1. The star, desi…

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…

The DECam MAGIC Survey: Spectroscopic Follow-up of the Most Metal-Poor Stars in the Distant Milky Way Halo

Vinicius M. Placco, Guilherme Limberg, Anirudh Chiti +21

In this work, we present high-resolution spectroscopic observations for six metal-poor stars with [Fe/H]<-3 (including one with [Fe/H]<-4), selected using narrow-band Ca II HK phot…
