Applying the metallicity-dependent binary fraction to double white dwarf formation: Implications for LISA

Sarah Thiele, Katelyn Breivik, Robyn E. Sanderson +1

Short-period double white dwarf (DWD) binaries will be the most prolific source of gravitational waves (GWs) for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). DWDs with GW frequen…

Reading the CARDs: the Imprint of Accretion History in the Chemical Abundances of the Milky Way's Stellar Halo

Emily C. Cunningham, Robyn E. Sanderson, Kathryn V. Johnston +7

In the era of large-scale spectroscopic surveys in the Local Group (LG), we can explore using chemical abundances of halo stars to study the star formation and chemical enrichment…

Gaia May Detect Hundreds of Well-characterised Stellar Black Holes

Chirag Chawla, Sourav Chatterjee, Katelyn Breivik +3

Detection of black holes (BHs) with detached luminous companions (LCs) can be instrumental in connecting the BH properties with their progenitors' since the latter can be inferred…

The In-situ Origins of Dwarf Stellar Outskirts in FIRE-2

Erin Kado-Fong, Robyn E. Sanderson, Jenny E. Greene +11

Extended, old, and round stellar halos appear to be ubiquitous around high-mass dwarf galaxies () in the observed universe. However, it is unlike…

Galactic Mass Estimates using Dwarf Galaxies as Kinematic Tracers

Anika Slizewski, Xander Dufresne, Keslen Murdock +4

New mass estimates and cumulative mass profiles with Bayesian credible regions (c.r.) for the Milky Way (MW) are found using the Galactic Mass Estimator (GME) code and dwarf galaxy…

Orbital phase-driven biases in Galactic mass constraints from stellar streams

Stella Reino, Robyn E. Sanderson, Nondh Panithanpaisal +2

One of the most promising tracers of the Galactic potential in the halo region are stellar streams. However, individual stream fits can be limited by systematic biases. To study th…
