What is a galaxy? How Cold is Cold Dark Matter? Recent progress in Near Field Cosmology
Gerard Gilmore, Dan Zucker, Mark Wilkinson +6
There has been a vast recent improvement in photometric and kinematic data for star clusters, Ultra Compact dwarfs, galactic nuclei, and local dSph galaxies, with Subaru contributi…
Light and Motion in SDSS Stripe 82: The Catalogues
D. M. Bramich, S. Vidrih, L. Wyrzykowski +19
We present a new public archive of light-motion curves in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Stripe 82, covering 99 deg in right ascension from RA = 20.7 h to 3.3 h and spanning 2.52…
New UltraCool and Halo White Dwarf Candidates in SDSS Stripe 82
S. Vidrih, D. M. Bramich, P. C. Hewett +16
A 2.5 x 100 degree region along the celestial equator (Stripe 82) has been imaged repeatedly from 1998 to 2005 by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. A new catalogue of ~4 million light-…
Improved photometry of SDSS crowded field images: Structure and dark matter content in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Leo I
V. Smolcic, D. Zucker, E. F. Bell +5
We explore how well crowded field point-source photometry can be accomplished with SDSS data: We present a photometric pipeline based on DoPhot, and tuned for analyzing crowded-fie…
The Luminosity Function of the Milky Way Satellites
S. Koposov, V. Belokurov, N. W. Evans +8
We quantify the detectability of stellar Milky Way satellites in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 5. We show that the effective search volumes for the recently disc…
The accretion origin of the Milky Way's stellar halo
Eric F. Bell, Daniel B. Zucker, Vasily Belokurov +15
We have used data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 5 to explore the overall structure and substructure of the stellar halo of the Milky Way using about 4 milli…
