The mass of our Milky Way
Wenting Wang, Jiaxin Han, Marius Cautun +2
We perform an extensive review of the numerous studies and methods used to determine the total mass of the Milky Way. We group the various methods into seven broad classes, includi…
Constraining the Milky Way Mass Profile with Phase-Space Distribution of Satellite Galaxies
Zhao-Zhou Li, Yong-Zhong Qian, Jiaxin Han +3
We estimate the Milky Way (MW) halo properties using satellite kinematic data including the latest measurements from Gaia DR2. With a simulation-based 6D phase-space distribution f…
A Versatile and Accurate Method for Halo Mass Determination from Phase-Space Distribution of Satellite Galaxies
Zhao-Zhou Li, Yong-Zhong Qian, Jiaxin Han +2
We propose a versatile and accurate method to estimate the halo mass and concentration from the kinematics of satellite galaxies. We construct the 6D phase-space distribution funct…
Satellite galaxies as better tracers of the Milky Way halo mass
Jiaxin Han, Wenting Wang, Zhaozhou Li
The inference of the Milky Way halo mass requires modelling the phase space structure of dynamical tracers, with different tracers following different models and having different l…
Second Data Release of the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program
Hiroaki Aihara, Yusra AlSayyad, Makoto Ando +62
This paper presents the second data release of the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program, a wide-field optical imaging survey on the 8.2 meter Subaru Telescope. The release in…
An HSC view of the CMASS galaxy sample. Halo mass as a function of stellar mass, size and Sérsic index
Alessandro Sonnenfeld, Wenting Wang, Neta Bahcall
Aims. We wish to determine the distribution of dark matter halo masses as a function of the stellar mass and the stellar mass profile, for massive galaxies in the BOSS CMASS sample…
