The total mass of the Large Magellanic Cloud from its perturbation on the Orphan stream
D. Erkal, V. Belokurov, C. F. P. Laporte +13
In a companion paper by Koposov et al., RR Lyrae from \textit{Gaia} Data Release 2 are used to demonstrate that stars in the Orphan stream have velocity vectors significantly misal…
Piercing the Milky Way: an all-sky view of the Orphan Stream
S. E. Koposov, V. Belokurov, T. S. Li +13
We use astrometry, broad-band photometry and variability information from the Data Release 2 of ESA's Gaia mission (GDR2) to identify members of the Orphan Stream (OS) across the w…
Schwarzschild dynamical model of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy
Klaudia Kowalczyk, Andrés del Pino, Ewa L. Lokas +1
We present a full dynamical model of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy obtained with the spherically symmetric Schwarzschild orbit superposition method applied to the largest kine…
First Gaia Dynamics of the Andromeda System: DR2 Proper Motions, Orbits, and Rotation of M31 and M33
Roeland P. van der Marel, Mark A. Fardal, Sangmo Tony Sohn +5
The 3D velocities of M31 and M33 are important for understanding the evolution and cosmological context of the Local Group. Their most massive stars are detected by Gaia, and we us…
Training telescope operators and support astronomers at Paranal
Henri M. J. Boffin, Dimitri A. Gadotti, Joe Anderson +3
The operations model of the Paranal Observatory relies on the work of efficient staff to carry out all the daytime and nighttime tasks. This is highly dependent on adequate trainin…
VLTI status update: a decade of operations and beyond
Antoine Merand, Roberto Abuter, Emmanuel Aller-Carpentier +44
We present the latest update of the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope interferometer (VLTI). The operations of VLTI have greatly improved in the past years: redu…
