The mass of the Milky Way from outer halo stars measured by DESI DR1

Gustavo E. Medina, Ting S. Li, Gwendolyn M. Eadie +50

As a benchmark for galaxy evolution and dark matter studies, the total mass of the Milky Way is a parameter of cosmological significance, and its value at large radii from the Gala…

Modelling the M68 stellar stream with realistic mass loss and frequency distributions in angle-action coordinates

Carles G. Palau, Wenting Wang, Jiaxin Han

We develop a new method for simulating stellar streams generated by globular clusters using angle-action coordinates. This method reproduces the variable mass-loss and variable fre…

Dependence of halo properties on central-satellite magnitude gaps through weak lensing measurements

Mingtao Yang, Jiaxin Han, Wenting Wang +9

The magnitude gap between the central and satellite galaxies encodes information about the mass accretion history of a dark matter halo, and serves as a useful observational probe…

The dark matter content of Milky Way dwarf spheroidal galaxies: Draco, Sextans and Ursa Minor

Hao Yang, Wenting Wang, Ling Zhu +50

The Milky Way Survey of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has so far observed three classical dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs): Draco, Sextans and Ursa Minor. Based…

Luminosity and stellar mass functions of faint photometric satellites around spectroscopic central galaxies from DESI Year-1 Bright Galaxy Survey

Wenting Wang, Xiaohu Yang, Yipeng Jing +47

We measure the luminosity functions (LFs) and stellar mass functions (SMFs) of photometric satellite galaxies around spectroscopically identified isolated central galaxies (ICGs).…

SpecDis: Value added distance catalogue for 4 million stars from DESI Year-1 data

Songting Li, Wenting Wang, Sergey E. Koposov +55

We present the SpecDis value added stellar distance catalog accompanying DESI DR1. SpecDis trains a feed-forward Neural Network (NN) with Gaia parallaxes and gets the distance esti…
