On the Use of Field RR Lyrae as Galactic Probes -- VIII. Early Formation of the Galactic Spheroid
G. Bono, V. F. Braga, M. Fabrizio +54
We introduce a new photometric catalog of RR Lyrae variables (RRLs, 300,000) mainly based on data available in public datasets. We also present the largest and most homogeneo…
The role of accreted and in situ populations in shaping the stellar halos of low-mass galaxies
Elisa A. Tau, Antonela Monachesi, Facundo A. Gomez +7
The stellar halos of dwarf galaxies are becoming an object of interest in the extragalactic community due to their detection in some recent observations. Additionally, new cosmolog…
First resolved stellar halo kinematics of a MW-mass galaxy outside the Local Group: A flat counter-rotating halo in NGC 4945
Camila Beltrand, Antonela Monachesi, Richard D'Souza +6
Stellar halos of galaxies, primarily formed through the accretion of smaller objects, are important to understand the hierarchical mass assembly of galaxies. However, the inner reg…
A reproduction of the Milky Way's Faraday rotation measure map in galaxy simulations from global to local scales
Stefan Reissl, Ralf S. Klessen, Eric W. Pellegrini +6
Magnetic fields are of critical importance for our understanding of the origin and long-term evolution of the Milky Way. This is due to their decisive role in the dynamical evoluti…
Lopsidedness as a tracer of early galactic assembly history
Arianna Dolfi, Facundo A. Gomez, Antonela Monachesi +4
Large-scale asymmetries (i.e. lopsidedness) are a common feature in the stellar density distribution of nearby disk galaxies both in low- and high-density environments. In this wor…
Cosmological gas accretion history onto the stellar discs of Milky Way-like galaxies in the Auriga simulations -- (I) Temporal dependency
Federico G. Iza, Cecilia Scannapieco, Sebastián E. Nuza +5
We use the 30 simulations of the Auriga Project to estimate the temporal dependency of the inflow, outflow and net accretion rates onto the discs of Milky Way-like galaxies. The ne…
