Proper Motion of the Leo II Dwarf Galaxy Based On Hubble Space Telescope Imaging

Slawomir Piatek, Carlton Pryor, Edward W. Olszewski

This article reports a measurement of the proper motion of Leo II, a dwarf galaxy that is a likely satellite of the Milky Way, based on imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope and…

Proper Motion of the Draco Dwarf Galaxy Based On Hubble Space Telescope Imaging

Carlton Pryor, Slawomir Piatek, Edward W. Olszewski

We have measured the proper motion of the Draco dwarf galaxy using images at two epochs with a time baseline of about two years taken with the Hubble Space Telescope and the Advanc…

A Test for Radial Mixing Using Local Star Samples

Jincheng Yu, J. A. Sellwood, Carlton Pryor +2

We use samples of local main-sequence stars to show that the radial gradient of [Fe/H] in the thin disk of the Milky Way decreases with mean effective stellar temperature. Many of…

Velocity-space substructure from nearby RAVE and SDSS stars

Chang Hoon Hahn, J. A. Sellwood, Carlton Pryor

We extract a sample of disc stars within 200 pc of the Sun from the RAVE and SDSS surveys. Distances are estimated photometrically and proper motions are from ground-based data. We…
