Physical properties of star clusters in the outer LMC as observed by the Dark Energy Survey

A. Pieres, B. Santiago, E. Balbinot +57

The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) harbors a rich and diverse system of star clusters, whose ages, chemical abundances, and positions provide information about the LMC history of sta…

Globular Cluster Streams as Galactic High-Precision Scales

A. H. W. Küpper, E. Balbinot, A. Bonaca +4

Tidal streams of globular clusters are ideal tracers of the Galactic gravitational potential. Compared to the few known, complex and diffuse dwarf-galaxy streams, they are kinemati…

Discovery of a Stellar Overdensity in Eridanus-Phoenix in the Dark Energy Survey

T. S. Li, E. Balbinot, N. Mondrik +56

We report the discovery of an excess of main sequence turn-off stars in the direction of the constellations of Eridanus and Phoenix from the first year data of the Dark Energy Surv…

The Phoenix stream: a cold stream in the Southern hemisphere

E. Balbinot, B. Yanny, T. S. Li +49

We report the discovery of a stellar stream in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 (Y1A1) data. The discovery was made through simple color-magnitude filters and visual inspection…

Digging deeper into the Southern skies: a compact Milky-Way companion discovered in first-year Dark Energy Survey data

E. Luque, A. Queiroz, B. Santiago +61

The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is a 5000 sq. degree survey in the southern hemisphere, which is rapidly reducing the existing north-south asymmetry in the census of MW satellites and…

Bridge over troubled gas: clusters and associations under the SMC and LMC tidal stresses

E. Bica, B. Santiago, C. Bonatto +5

We obtained SOAR telescope B and V photometry of 14 star clusters and 2 associations in the Bridge tidal structure connecting the LMC and SMC. These objects are used to study the f…
