Stellar streams reveal the mass loss of globular clusters
Yingtian Chen, Hui Li, Oleg Y. Gnedin
Globular cluster (GC) streams, debris of stars that tidally stripped from their progenitor GCs, have densities that correlate positively with the GC mass loss rate. In this work, w…
Stellar bars form dark matter counterparts in TNG50
Neil Ash, Monica Valluri, Yingtian Chen +1
Dark matter (DM) bars that shadow stellar bars have been previously shown to form in idealized simulations of isolated disk galaxies. Here, we show that DM bars commonly occur in b…
Improved particle spray algorithm for modeling globular cluster streams
Yingtian Chen, Monica Valluri, Oleg Y. Gnedin +1
Stellar streams that emerge from globular clusters (GCs) are thin stellar structures spread along the orbits of progenitor clusters. Numerical modeling of these streams is essentia…
Forecasting the Population of Globular Cluster Streams in Milky Way-type Galaxies
Sarah Pearson, Ana Bonaca, Yingtian Chen +1
Thin stellar streams originating from globular clusters are among the most sensitive tracers of low-mass dark-matter subhalos. Joint analysis of the entire population of stellar st…
Galaxy assembly revealed by globular clusters
Yingtian Chen, Oleg Y. Gnedin
Many observable properties of globular clusters (GCs) provide valuable insights for unveiling the hierarchical assembly of their host galaxy. For the Milky Way (MW) in particular,…
