Deep Imaging of Grus II and Horologium II: Structure and Extent of Two Ultra-Faint Milky Way Satellites
Deepthi S. Prabhu, David J. Sand, Anirudh Chiti +29
We present deep, wide-field Magellan/Megacam imaging of the ultra-faint Milky Way (MW) satellites Grus II (Gru II) and Horologium II (Hor II), with the aim of deriving improved con…
The DECam MAGIC Survey: Uncovering the Tidal Tails of the Crater II Dwarf Galaxy
Kaia R. Atzberger, Andrew B. Pace, Nitya Kallivayalil +27
Crater II (CraII), a large and low-density dwarf spheroidal galaxy, has unusual observed properties that are difficult to reproduce in cold dark matter simulations. Ongoing tidal d…
The DECam MAGIC Survey Mapping the Ancient Galaxy in CaHK: Overview and Summary of Early Science
A. Chiti, A. Drlica-Wagner, A. B. Pace +42
We present the DECam Mapping the Ancient Galaxy in CaHK (MAGIC) survey, a 54-night NOIRLab Survey Program to image 5,000deg of the southern hemisphere using a meta…
The DECam MAGIC Survey: Investigating the Jet Stellar Stream with Photometric Metallicities
H. Q. Do, A. Chiti, P. S. Ferguson +27
Stellar streams are dynamically fragile structures formed by the tidal disruption of dwarf galaxies and stellar clusters. These objects are valuable tracers of the gravitational po…
Stellar characterization with photometric colors from J-PLUS and 2MASS surveys
J. F. Aguilar, P. Cruz, E. Solano +17
Aims. We aim at deriving stellar atmospheric parameters based on the photometric data from the Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey (J-PLUS) in addition to near-infrared ph…
DELVE Milky Way Satellite Galaxy Census I: Satellite Population and Survey Selection Function in DES, DELVE, and Pan-STARRS
C. Y. Tan, A. Drlica-Wagner, A. B. Pace +84
The properties of Milky Way satellite galaxies have important implications for galaxy formation, reionization, and the fundamental physics of dark matter. However, the population o…
