Kinematic and Chemical constraints on the formation of M31's inner and outer halo
A. Koch, R. M. Rich, D. B. Reitzel +8
The halo of M31 shows a wealth of substructures that are consistent with satellite accretion. Here we report on kinematic and abundance results from Keck/DEIMOS spectroscopy in the…
Modeling the Tidal Tails of the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy
David R. Law, Steven R. Majewski, Kathryn V. Johnston +1
N-body simulations are used to model the tidal disruption of the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf galaxy with constraints set by the positions and velocities of M giants in the Sgr tidal ar…
Tidal Streams around External Galaxies
M. Pohlen, D. Martinez-Delgado, S. Majewski +3
We have the unique opportunity to observe and model nearby streams around the two large Local Group spirals Milky Way and M31 in great detail. However, the detection of streams aro…
