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…

DELVE-ing into the Milky Way's Globular Clusters: Assessing extra-tidal features in NGC 5897, NGC 7492, and testing detectability with deeper photometry

A. Chiti, K. Tavangar, P. S. Ferguson +22

Extra-tidal features around globular clusters (GCs) are tracers of their disruption, stellar stream formation, and their host's gravitational potential. However, these features rem…
