The Detailed Science Case for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer: the Composition and Dynamics of the Faint Universe
Alan McConnachie, Carine Babusiaux, Michael Balogh +173
MSE is an 11.25m aperture observatory with a 1.5 square degree field of view that will be fully dedicated to multi-object spectroscopy. More than 3200 fibres will feed spectrograph…
The satellites of the Milky Way - Insights from semi-analytic modelling in a LambdaCDM cosmology
Else Starkenburg, Amina Helmi, Gabriella De Lucia +7
We combine the six high-resolution Aquarius dark matter simulations with a semi-analytic galaxy formation model to investigate the properties of the satellites of Milky Way-like ga…
On the identification of merger debris in the {\it Gaia} Era
Facundo A. Gómez, Amina Helmi, Anthony G. A. Brown +1
We model the formation of the Galactic stellar halo via the accretion of satellite galaxies onto a time-dependent semi-cosmological galactic potential. Our goal is to characterize…
On the nature of the Milky Way satellites
Yang-Shyang Li, Gabriella De Lucia, Amina Helmi
We combine a series of high-resolution simulations with semi-analytic galaxy formation models to follow the evolution of a system resembling the Milky Way and its satellites. The s…
On the common mass scale of the Milky Way satellites
Yang-Shyang Li, Amina Helmi, Gabriella De Lucia +1
We use a hybrid approach that combines high-resolution simulations of the formation of a Milky Way-like halo with a semi-analytic model of galaxy formation to study the mass conten…
Group infall of substructures on to a Milky Way-like dark halo
Yang-Shyang Li, Amina Helmi
We report the discovery that substructures/subhaloes of a galaxy-size halo tend to fall in together in groups in cosmological simulations, something that may explain the oddity of…
Masses for the Local Group and the Milky Way
Yang-Shyang Li, Simon D. M. White
We use the very large Millennium Simulation of the concordance CDM cosmogony to calibrate the bias and error distribution of Timing Argument estimators of the masses of the Loca…
Infall of substructures onto a Milky Way-like dark halo
Yang-Shyang Li, Amina Helmi
We analyse the dynamical properties of substructures in a high-resolution dark matter simulation of the formation of a Milky Way-like halo in a CDM cosmology. Our goal is to she…
