A purely acceleration-based measurement of the fundamental Galactic parameters
Jo Bovy
Klioner et al. have used the Gaia EDR3 data to directly measure the solar system's acceleration within the Milky Way using the apparent proper motions of quasars. Here I show that…
Don't cross the streams: caustics from Fuzzy Dark Matter
Neal Dalal, Jo Bovy, Lam Hui +1
We study how tidal streams from globular clusters may be used to constrain the mass of ultra-light dark matter particles, called `fuzzy' dark matter (FDM). A general feature of FDM…
Testing the chemical homogeneity of chemically tagged dissolved birth clusters
Chloe M. Cheng, Natalie Price-Jones, Jo Bovy
Chemically tagging stars back to common formation sites in the Milky Way and establishing a high level of chemical homogeneity in these chemically tagged birth clusters is crucial…
APOGEE Data and Spectral Analysis from SDSS Data Release 16: Seven Years of Observations Including First Results from APOGEE-South
Henrik Jönsson, Jon A. Holtzman, Carlos Allende Prieto +20
The spectral analysis and data products in Data Release 16 (DR16; December 2019) from the high-resolution near-infrared APOGEE-2/SDSS-IV survey are described. Compared to the previ…
The Effects of Dwarf Galaxies on the Orbital Evolution of Galactic Globular Clusters
Turner Garrow, Jeremy J. Webb, Jo Bovy
We investigate the effect that dwarf galaxies have on the orbits, tidal histories, and assumed formation environment of Milky Way globular clusters. We determine the orbits of the…
And In The Darkness Unbind Them: High-Resolution Simulations of Dark Matter Subhalo Disruption in a Milky Way-like Tidal Field
Jeremy J. Webb, Jo Bovy
We compare the results of high-resolution simulations of individual dark matter subhalos evolving in external tidal fields with and without baryonic bulge and disk components, wher…
