LSST Cadence Optimization White Paper in Support of Observations of Unresolved Tidal Stellar Streams in Galaxies beyond the Local Group
Seppo Laine, David Martinez-Delgado, Ignacio Trujillo +11
Deep observations of faint surface brightness stellar tidal streams in external galaxies with LSST are addressed in this White Paper contribution. We propose using the Wide--Fast--…
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…
SMHASH: A new mid-infrared RR Lyrae distance determination for the Local Group dwarf spheroidal galaxy Sculptor
Alessia Garofalo, Victoria Scowcroft, Gisella Clementini +12
We present a new distance estimation for the Milky Way dwarf spheroidal satellite Sculptor obtained from multi-epoch mid-infrared observations of RR Lyrae stars. The 3.6 μm observa…
