Dark Matter in Draco and Boötes I: Hints of a Core in an Ultra-Faint Dwarf from Simulation-Based Inference
Tri Nguyen, Lina Necib, Ting S. Li +8
The density profiles of dwarf spheroidal galaxies are among the most sensitive probes of dark matter physics, yet extracting them from noisy stellar kinematics remains a fundamenta…
Reconstructing the orbits of Milky Way dwarf galaxies: A Large Magellanic Cloud perspective
Alberto Manuel Martínez-García, Andrés del Pino, Roeland P. van der Marel +14
The orbital histories of the dwarf satellites of the Milky Way (MW) are key to understanding their evolution and placing their present-day properties in a dynamical context. We pre…
Hubble Astrometry for the Local Group and Beyond in the 2030s
S. Tony Sohn, Paul Bennet, Kevin Andrew McKinnon +23
Hubble's long, stable astrometric baseline creates a rare opportunity for discovery in the Local Group and beyond. Many nearby galaxies, streams, and star clusters already have arc…
Simulating Roman+Gaia Combined Astrometry, Parallaxes, and Proper Motions
Kevin A. McKinnon, Roeland P. van der Marel
The next generation of high-precision astrometry is rapidly approaching thanks to ongoing and upcoming missions like Euclid, LSST, and RST. We present a new tool (available at http…
A near field guide to Roman's wide-area surveys
Robyn E. Sanderson, Kevin A. McKinnon, Adrien C. R. Thob +7
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope currently plans to survey nearly 6000 square degrees of the sky, mainly in the High-Latitude Wide-Area Survey (HLWAS) and Galactic Plane Surve…
A Path to an All-Sky Survey with Roman
Jiwon Jesse Han, Anirudh Chiti, Kai-Feng Chen +93
A deep, space-based, all-sky near-infrared survey carried out with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope would constitute a foundational astronomical infrastructure for decades to…
Optimal and Unbiased Fluxes from Up-the-Ramp Detectors under Variable Illumination
Bowen Li, Kevin A. McKinnon, Andrew K. Saydjari +6
Near-infrared (NIR) detectors -- which use non-destructive readouts to measure time-series counts-per-pixel -- play a crucial role in modern astrophysics. Standard NIR flux extract…
The Proper Motion of Draco II with HST using Multiple Reference Frames and Methodologies
Jack T. Warfield, Kevin A. McKinnon, Sangmo Tony Sohn +13
We present proper motion (PM) measurements for Draco II, an ultra-faint dwarf satellite of the Milky Way. These PMs are measured using two epochs of Hubble Space Telescope Advanced…
HSTPROMO Internal Proper Motion Kinematics of Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies: II. Velocity Anisotropy and Dark Matter Cusp Slope of Sculptor
Eduardo Vitral, Roeland P. van der Marel, Sangmo Tony Sohn +8
We analyze three epochs of HST imaging over 20 years for the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, measuring precise proper motions for 119 stars and combining them with 1760 existing…
The Nineteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
SDSS Collaboration, Gautham Adamane Pallathadka, Mojgan Aghakhanloo +210
Mapping the local and distant Universe is key to our understanding of it. For decades, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has made a concerted effort to map millions of celestial…
