Discovery, Characterization, and Potential Origins of a Stream in the Stellar Halo of Nearby LMC-Mass Galaxy NGC 55
Benjamin N. Velguth, Burçin Mutlu-Pakdil, Erik Tollerud +33
We present a previously undetected stellar stream in the halo of the LMC-mass dwarf galaxy NGC 55 (2 Mpc), as part of an ongoing effort to characterize the stellar halos of LMC/SMC…
Rubin Observatory Reveals a Dust-Shrouded Halo Globular Cluster in Ophiuchus
Aashay Pai, William Cerny, Andrew B. Pace +9
We present the discovery of the Milky Way satellite Rubin-GC1 (Rubin J1628-1735) using data from the NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Early Data Preview 2. The system was discov…
A Deep Look at the Ultra-Faint Milky Way Satellite Virgo III with Rubin Observatory Data Preview 2
Aashay Pai, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Peter S. Ferguson +10
We analyze the ultra-faint Milky Way satellite Virgo III using data from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Data Preview 2 (DP2). Virgo III was observed in the Rubin "Cosmic Treasure Ch…
Discovery of the Distant, Ultra-Faint Milky Way Satellite Aquarius IV with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Early Data Preview 2
William Cerny, Aashay Pai, Alex Drlica-Wagner +16
We present the discovery of Aquarius IV (Rubin J22010234) -- the first ultra-faint Milky Way satellite to be identified using data from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory. This syste…
Discovery and Spectroscopic Characterization of a Distant, Compact Milky Way Satellite in Gemini
K. Overdeck, W. Cerny, C. Y. Tan +27
We present the discovery of a compact Milky Way satellite in the constellation of Gemini. This system was discovered by cross-matching detections from two independent search algori…
A Chemodynamical Census of the Milky Way's Ultra-Faint Compact Satellites. I. A First Population-Level Look at the Internal Kinematics and Metallicities of 19 Extremely-Low-Mass Halo Stellar Systems
William Cerny, Ting S. Li, Andrew B. Pace +13
Deep, wide-area photometric surveys have uncovered a population of compact ( 1-15 pc), extremely-low-mass ( 20-4000 ) stellar systems in th…
The Keck/DEIMOS Stellar Archive: I. Uniform Velocities and Metallicities for 78 Milky Way Dwarf Galaxies and Globular Clusters
Marla Geha, Debora Pelliccia, J. Xavier Prochaska +5
We present a homogeneous spectroscopic dataset of 22,339 stars in 78 Milky Way dwarf galaxy satellites and globular clusters. All data were taken with the Keck II telescope and Dee…
Multi-Wavelength, Optical (VI) and Near-Infrared (JHK) Calibration of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch Method based on Milky Way Globular Clusters
William Cerny, Wendy L. Freedman, Barry F. Madore +5
Using high precision ground-based photometry for 46 low-reddening Galactic globular clusters, in conjunction with Gaia DR2 proper motions for member star selection, we have calibra…
