Galactic Structure From Binary Pulsar Accelerations: Beyond Smooth Models

Thomas Donlon, Sukanya Chakrabarti, Lawrence M. Widrow +3

We measure the line-of-sight accelerations of 26 binary pulsars due to the Milky Way's gravitational potential, and produce a 3-dimensional map of the acceleration field of the Gal…

Roman CCS White Paper: Characterizing the Galactic population of isolated black holes

Casey Y. Lam, Natasha Abrams, Jeff Andrews +34

Although there are estimated to be 100 million isolated black holes (BHs) in the Milky Way, only one has been found so far, resulting in significant uncertainty about their propert…

The far side of the Galactic bar/bulge revealed through semi-regular variables

Daniel R. Hey, Daniel Huber, Benjamin J. Shappee +8

The Galactic bulge and bar are critical to our understanding of the Milky Way. However, due to the lack of reliable stellar distances, the structure and kinematics of the bulge/bar…

Orientations of DM Halos in FIRE-2 Milky Way-mass Galaxies

Jay Baptista, Robyn Sanderson, Dan Huber +11

The shape and orientation of dark matter (DM) halos are sensitive to the micro-physics of the DM particle, yet in many mass models, the symmetry axes of the Milky Way's DM halo are…

LensWatch: I. Resolved HST Observations and Constraints on the Strongly-Lensed Type Ia Supernova 2022qmx ("SN Zwicky")

J. D. R. Pierel, N. Arendse, S. Ertl +39

Supernovae (SNe) that have been multiply-imaged by gravitational lensing are rare and powerful probes for cosmology. Each detection is an opportunity to develop the critical tools…

Building an Acceleration Ladder with Tidal Streams and Pulsar Timing

Peter Craig, Sukanya Chakrabarti, Robyn E. Sanderson +1

We analyze stellar streams in action-angle coordinates combined with recent local direct acceleration measurements to provide joint constraints on the potential of our Galaxy. Our…
