Physical properties of star clusters in the outer LMC as observed by the Dark Energy Survey
A. Pieres, B. Santiago, E. Balbinot +57
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) harbors a rich and diverse system of star clusters, whose ages, chemical abundances, and positions provide information about the LMC history of sta…
Digging deeper into the Southern skies: a compact Milky-Way companion discovered in first-year Dark Energy Survey data
E. Luque, A. Queiroz, B. Santiago +61
The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is a 5000 sq. degree survey in the southern hemisphere, which is rapidly reducing the existing north-south asymmetry in the census of MW satellites and…
Eight Ultra-faint Galaxy Candidates Discovered in Year Two of the Dark Energy Survey
The DES Collaboration, A. Drlica-Wagner, K. Bechtol +74
We report the discovery of eight new ultra-faint dwarf galaxy candidates in the second year of optical imaging data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Six of these candidates are d…
Search for Gamma-Ray Emission from DES Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy Candidates with Fermi-LAT Data
LAT Collaboration, The DES Collaboration, A. Drlica-Wagner +123
Due to their proximity, high dark-matter content, and apparent absence of non-thermal processes, Milky Way dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies (dSphs) are excellent targets for the…
Eight New Milky Way Companions Discovered in First-Year Dark Energy Survey Data
The DES Collaboration, K. Bechtol, A. Drlica-Wagner +91
We report the discovery of eight new Milky Way companions in ~1,800 deg^2 of optical imaging data collected during the first year of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Each system is id…
Spectro-photometric distances to stars: a general-purpose Bayesian approach
Basílio X. Santiago, Dorothée E. Brauer, Friedrich Anders +16
We developed a code that estimates distances to stars using measured spectroscopic and photometric quantities. We employ a Bayesian approach to build the probability distribution f…
