Physical properties of star clusters in the outer LMC as observed by the Dark Energy Survey

A. Pieres, B. Santiago, E. Balbinot +57

The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) harbors a rich and diverse system of star clusters, whose ages, chemical abundances, and positions provide information about the LMC history of sta…

Digging deeper into the Southern skies: a compact Milky-Way companion discovered in first-year Dark Energy Survey data

E. Luque, A. Queiroz, B. Santiago +61

The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is a 5000 sq. degree survey in the southern hemisphere, which is rapidly reducing the existing north-south asymmetry in the census of MW satellites and…

Discovery of two gravitationally lensed quasars in the Dark Energy Survey

Adriano Agnello, Tommaso Treu, Fernanda Ostrovski +77

We present spectroscopic confirmation of two new lensed quasars via data obtained at the 6.5m Magellan/Baade Telescope. The lens candidates have been selected from the Dark Energy…

Eight Ultra-faint Galaxy Candidates Discovered in Year Two of the Dark Energy Survey

The DES Collaboration, A. Drlica-Wagner, K. Bechtol +74

We report the discovery of eight new ultra-faint dwarf galaxy candidates in the second year of optical imaging data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Six of these candidates are d…

No galaxy left behind: accurate measurements with the faintest objects in the Dark Energy Survey

E. Suchyta, E. M. Huff, J. Aleksić +72

Accurate statistical measurement with large imaging surveys has traditionally required throwing away a sizable fraction of the data. This is because most measurements have have rel…

OzDES multi-fibre spectroscopy for the Dark Energy Survey: first-year operation and results

Fang Yuan, C. Lidman, T. M. Davis +99

OzDES is a five-year, 100-night, spectroscopic survey on the Anglo-Australian Telescope, whose primary aim is to measure redshifts of approximately 2,500 Type Ia supernovae host ga…

Galaxies in X-ray Selected Clusters and Groups in Dark Energy Survey Data I: Stellar Mass Growth of Bright Central Galaxies Since z~1.2

Y. Zhang, C. Miller, T. Mckay +80

Using the science verification data of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) for a new sample of 106 X-Ray selected clusters and groups, we study the stellar mass growth of Bright Central G…

Eight New Milky Way Companions Discovered in First-Year Dark Energy Survey Data

The DES Collaboration, K. Bechtol, A. Drlica-Wagner +91

We report the discovery of eight new Milky Way companions in ~1,800 deg^2 of optical imaging data collected during the first year of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Each system is id…
