Impact of merger histories on the timing argument estimate of the Local Group mass
Istiak Akib, François Hammer, Yanbin Yang
The timing argument (TA) aims to find the total mass of the Local Group (LG) from the relative motions of the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda Galaxy (M31). However, the classical TA a…

An intriguing coincidence between the majority of vast polar structure dwarfs and a recent major merger at the M31 position
Istiak Akib, François Hammer, Yanbin Yang +2
A significant part of the Milky Way (MW) dwarf galaxies orbit within a Vast POlar Structure (VPOS), which is perpendicular to the Galactic disc and whose origin has not yet been id…

The survey of planetary nebulae in Andromeda (M31) VII. Predictions of a major merger simulation model compared with chemodynamical data of the disc and inner halo substructures
C. Tsakonas, M. Arnaboldi, S. Bhattacharya +5
The nearest giant spiral, M31, exhibits a kinematically hot stellar disc, a global star formation episode ~2-4 Gyr ago, and conspicuous substructures in its stellar halo that are s…
