The Galactic Bulge exploration VI.: Gaia Enceladus/Sausage RR Lyrae stars in the inner-central stellar halo of the Milky Way
Andrea Kunder, Zdenek Prudil, Antonela Monachesi +6
We present a view of the stellar halo in the inner-central regions of the Milky Way (R <~ 10 kpc) mapped by RR Lyrae stars. The combined BRAVA-RR/APOGEE RR Lyrae catalog is used to…

Unveiling the formation channels of stellar halos through their chemical fingerprints
Jenny Gonzalez-Jara, Patricia B. Tissera, Antonela Monachesi +6
Stellar halos around galaxies contain key information about their formation and assembly history. Using simulations, we can trace the origins of different stellar populations in th…

The role of accreted and in situ populations in shaping the stellar halos of low-mass galaxies
Elisa A. Tau, Antonela Monachesi, Facundo A. Gomez +7
The stellar halos of dwarf galaxies are becoming an object of interest in the extragalactic community due to their detection in some recent observations. Additionally, new cosmolog…
