Kinematics and Metallicities in the Bootes III Stellar Overdensity: a Disrupted Dwarf Galaxy?
Jeffrey L. Carlin, Carl J. Grillmair, Ricardo R. Munoz +2
We report the results of a spectroscopic study of the Bootes III (BooIII) stellar overdensity carried out with the Hectospec multifiber spectrograph on the MMT telescope. Radial ve…
Properties of Dark Matter Revealed by Astrometric Measurements of the Milky Way and Local Galaxies
Edward Shaya, Robert Olling, Massimo Ricotti +19
The fact that dark matter (DM), thus far, has revealed itself only on scales of galaxies and larger, again thrusts onto astrophysics the opportunity and the responsibility to confr…
Strong Water Absorption in the Dayside Emission Spectrum of the Planet HD 189733b
Carl J. Grillmair, Adam Burrows, David Charbonneau +6
Recent observations of the extrasolar planet HD 189733b did not reveal the presence of water in the emission spectrum of the planet. Yet models of such 'Hot Jupiter' planets predic…
Taking the Measure of the Universe: Precision Astrometry with SIM PlanetQuest
Stephen C. Unwin, Michael Shao, Angelle M. Tanner +33
Precision astrometry at microarcsecond accuracy has application to a wide range of astrophysical problems. This paper is a study of the science questions that can be addressed usin…
Substructure in Tidal Streams; Tributaries in the Anticenter Ring
C. J. Grillmair
We report on the detection in Sloan Digital Sky Survey data of at least three, roughly parallel components in a 65 degree-long stellar stream complex previously identified with the…
Detection of a 63 Degree Cold Stellar Stream in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Carl J. Grillmair, Odysseas Dionatos
We report on the detection in Sloan Digital Sky Survey data of a 63 degree-long tidal stream of stars, extending from Ursa Major to Cancer. The stream has no obvious association wi…
