Birds of a Feather? Magellan/IMACS Spectroscopy of the Ultra-Faint Satellites Grus II, Tucana IV, and Tucana V

J. D. Simon, T. S. Li, D. Erkal +54

We present Magellan/IMACS spectroscopy of three recently discovered ultra-faint Milky Way satellites, Grus II, Tucana IV, and Tucana V. We measure systemic velocities of V_hel = -1…

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…
