The Merian Survey: A Statistical Census of Bright Satellites of Sub-Milky Way-Mass Galaxies
Lucas S. Mandacarú Guerra, Jiaxuan Li, Yue Pan +9
Satellite populations provide sensitive tests of the galaxy-halo connection, but studies have largely focused on Milky Way (MW)-mass host galaxies or a small number of nearby dwarf…
The Connection between Halo Assembly History and the Stellar Distribution I: The Central Stellar Mass - Richness Plane
Shuo Xu, Song Huang, Alexie Leauthaud +4
Recent observations suggest intrinsic links between the stellar components of massive halos and their assembly histories. Using massive halos with $\log[M_{\rm halo}/M_\odot] \geq…
Improved constraints on the Milky Way potential using the M68 stream and DESI spectroscopic data
Carles G. Palau, Wenting Wang, Jiaxin Han +41
We present a selection of stars belonging to the stellar stream of the M68 (NGC 4590) globular cluster, also known as Fjörm. This star selection is an improvement on previous ones…
The Merian Survey: A Statistical Census of Bright Satellites of Milky Way Analogs
Yue Pan, Shany Danieli, Jenny E. Greene +10
We present a statistical census of bright, star-forming satellite galaxies around Milky Way (MW) analogs using the first data release of the Merian Survey. Our sample consists of 3…
Reaching for the Edge II: Stellar Halos out to Large Radii as a Tracer of Dark Matter Halo Mass
Katya Leidig, Benedikt Diemer, Song Huang +3
The diffuse outskirts of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) encode valuable information about the assembly history and mass of their host dark matter halos. However, the low surface…
Testing the Stellar Feedback-driven Breathing Mode in Low-mass Galaxies with Gas Kinematics
Yifei Luo, Joseph Wick, Alexie Leauthaud +7
Hydrodynamic simulations have proposed that stellar feedback and bursty star-formation can produce dark matter cores in low-mass galaxies. A key prediction is that feedback-driven…
