: Hamiltonian Perturbation Theory for Stellar Streams in Flexible Potentials with Differentiable Simulations
Jacob Nibauer, Ana Bonaca, David N. Spergel +4
Stellar streams retain a memory of their gravitational interactions with small-scale perturbations. While perturbative models for streams have been formulated in action-angle coord…
LMC Calls, Milky Way Halo Answers: Disentangling the Effects of the MW--LMC Interaction on Stellar Stream Populations
Richard A. N. Brooks, Nicolás Garavito-Camargo, Kathryn V. Johnston +3
The infall of the LMC into the Milky Way (MW) has dynamical implications throughout the MW's dark matter halo. We study the impact of this merger on the statistical properties of p…
The Milky Way's rowdy neighbours: The effects of the Large Magellanic Cloud and Sagittarius Dwarf on the Milky Way Disc
Ioana A. Stelea, Jason A. S. Hunt, Kathryn V. Johnston
The Milky Way (MW) is a barred spiral galaxy shaped by tidal interactions with its satellites. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the Sagittarius Dwarf galaxy (Sgr) are the domin…
Radial phase spirals in the Solar neighbourhood
Jason A. S. Hunt, Adrian M. Price-Whelan, Kathryn V. Johnston +4
The second data release of ESA's mission revealed numerous signatures of disequilibrium in the Milky Way's disc. These signatures are seen in the planar kinematics of stars,…
Data-driven Dynamics with Orbital Torus Imaging: A Flexible Model of the Vertical Phase Space of the Galaxy
Adrian M. Price-Whelan, Jason A. S. Hunt, Danny Horta +4
The vertical kinematics of stars near the Sun can be used to measure the total mass distribution near the Galactic disk and to study out-of-equilibrium dynamics. With contemporary…
