The shape-velocity alignment of satellites forged by tidal locking and dynamical friction
Hao Yang, Wenting Wang, Ting S. Li +8
Utilizing the TNG50 simulation, we study two types of alignments for satellites/subhalos: 1) the alignment of their major axes with the galactocentric radial directions (radial ali…
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…
