Global Properties of M31's Stellar Halo from the SPLASH Survey. I. Surface Brightness Profile
Karoline M. Gilbert, Puragra Guhathakurta, Rachael L. Beaton +10
We present the surface brightness profile of M31's stellar halo out to a projected radius of 175 kpc. The surface brightness estimates are based on confirmed samples of M31 red gia…
A 2MASS All-Sky View of the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy: VII. Kinematics of the Main Body of the Sagittarius dSph
Peter M. Frinchaboy, Steven R. Majewski, Ricardo R. Munoz +5
We have assembled a large-area spectroscopic survey of giant stars in the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf galaxy core. Using medium resolution (R ~15,000), multifiber spectroscopy we have…
Exploring Halo Substructure with Giant Stars: Substructure in the Local Halo as Seen in the Grid Giant Star Survey Including Extended Tidal Debris from Omega Centauri
Steven R. Majewski, David L. Nidever, Verne V. Smith +5
We present the latitude-normalized radial velocity (vb) distribution of 3318 subsolar metallicity, V<13.5 stars from the Grid Giant Star Survey (GGSS) in Southern Hemisphere fields…
Identifying Contributions to the Stellar Halo from Accreted, Kicked-Out, and In Situ Populations
Allyson A. Sheffield, Steven R. Majewski, Kathryn V. Johnston +10
[Abridged] We present a medium-resolution spectroscopic survey of late-type giant stars at mid-Galactic latitudes of (30), designed to probe the properties…
