Alignment of the Milky Way and M31 with their cosmic environment. New insights from constrained Local Group simulations
Hanneke C. Woudenberg, Amina Helmi, Ewoud Wempe +4
The large-scale environment is thought to play an important role in setting galaxy properties. The Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31) reside in the Local Group, embedded in the Loc…
The metal-poor tail of the APOGEE survey I. Uncovering [Fe/H] < -2.5 stars from the inner Galaxy to the Magellanic Clouds
M. Montelius, E. Starkenburg, H. Woudenberg +9
In the search for metal-poor stars, large spectroscopic surveys are an invaluable tool. However, the spectra of metal-poor stars can be difficult to analyse because of the relative…
Evidence of a massive accretion event 1.8 billion years before the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus merger
Davide Massari, Chiara Zerbinati, Cristiano Fanelli +15
The merger history of the Galaxy has been traced back firmly to redshift 2 (10 Billion years ago). While evidence for the existence of at least one more significant merger before t…
On the chaos induced by the Galactic bar on the orbits of nearby halo stars
Hanneke C. Woudenberg, Amina Helmi
Many of the Milky Way's accreted substructures have been discovered and studied in the space of energy , and angular momentum components and . In a static axisym…
Chemical characterisation of small substructures in the local stellar halo
Emma Dodd, Tadafumi Matsuno, Amina Helmi +5
The local stellar halo of the Milky Way is known to contain the debris from accreted dwarf galaxies and globular clusters, in the form of stellar streams and over-densities in the…
First measurement of the triaxiality of the inner dark matter halo of the Milky Way
Hanneke C. Woudenberg, Amina Helmi
Stellar streams are particularly sensitive probes of the mass distribution of galaxies. In this work, we focus on the Helmi Streams, the remnants of an accreted dwarf galaxy orbiti…
Swarming in stellar streams: Unveiling the structure of the Jhelum stream with ant colony-inspired computation
Petra Awad, Marco Canducci, Eduardo Balbinot +8
The halo of the Milky Way galaxy hosts multiple dynamically coherent substructures known as stellar streams that are remnants of tidally disrupted systems such as globular clusters…
Characterization and dynamics of the peculiar stream Jhelum, A tentative role for the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy
Hanneke C. Woudenberg, Orlin Koop, Eduardo Balbinot +1
Stellar streams are a promising tool to study the Milky Way's dark matter subhalo population, as interactions with subhalos could produce substructure in streams. However, other po…
