The Pristine survey X: a large population of low-metallicity stars permeates the Galactic disk
Federico Sestito, Nicolas F. Martin, Else Starkenburg +26
The orbits of the least chemically enriched stars open a window on the formation of our Galaxy when it was still in its infancy. The common picture is that these low-metallicity st…
Simulating MOS science on the ELT: Ly forest tomography
J. Japelj, C. Laigle, M. Puech +14
Mapping of the large-scale structure through cosmic time has numerous applications in the studies of cosmology and galaxy evolution. At , the structure can be traced by the…
The Pristine survey -- VII. A cleaner view of the Galactic outer halo using blue horizontal branch stars
Else Starkenburg, Kris Youakim, Nicolas Martin +11
We use the Pristine survey CaHK narrow-band photometry, combined with the SDSS ugr photometry, to provide a cleaner sample of blue horizontal branch stars in the Galactic halo out…
Dwarfs or giants? Stellar metallicities and distances in the Canada-France-Imaging-Survey from multi-band photometry
Guillaume F. Thomas, Nicholaas Annau, Alan McConnachie +19
We present a new fully data-driven algorithm that uses photometric data from the Canada-France-Imaging-Survey (CFIS; ), Pan-STARRS 1 (PS1; ), and Gaia () to discriminat…
The Pristine Survey -- VI. The first three years of medium-resolution follow-up spectroscopy of Pristine EMP star candidates
David S. Aguado, Kris Youakim, Jonay I. González Hernández +27
We present the results of a 3-year long, medium-resolution spectroscopic campaign aimed at identifying very metal-poor stars from candidates selected with the CaHK, metallicity-sen…
The Next Generation Fornax Survey (NGFS): VI. The Alignment of Dwarf Galaxies in The Fornax Cluster
Yu Rong, Thomas H. Puzia, Paul Eigenthaler +16
Using the photometric data from the Next Generation Fornax Survey, we find a significant radial alignment signal among the Fornax dwarf galaxies. For the first time, we report that…
