Orbital Clustering Identifies the Origins of Galactic Stellar Streams
Ana Bonaca, Rohan P. Naidu, Charlie Conroy +9
The origins of most stellar streams in the Milky Way are unknown. With improved proper motions provided by Gaia EDR3, we show that the orbits of 23 Galactic stellar streams are hig…
Stellar Population Inference with Prospector
Benjamin D. Johnson, Joel Leja, Charlie Conroy +1
Inference of the physical properties of stellar populations from observed photometry and spectroscopy is a key goal in the study of galaxy evolution. In recent years the quality an…
Ancient Very Metal-Poor Stars Associated With the Galactic Disk in the H3 Survey
Courtney Carter, Charlie Conroy, Dennis Zaritsky +8
Ancient, very metal-poor stars offer a window into the earliest epochs of galaxy formation and assembly. We combine data from the H3 Spectroscopic Survey and Gaia to measure metall…
Discovery of Magellanic Stellar Debris in the H3 Survey
Dennis Zaritsky, Charlie Conroy, Rohan P. Naidu +9
We report the discovery of 15 stars in the H3 survey that lie, in projection, near the tip of the trailing gaseous Magellanic Stream (MS). The stars have Galactocentric velocities…
MESA models with magnetic braking
Seth Gossage, Aaron Dotter, Cecilia Garraffo +3
Two magnetic braking models are implemented in MESA for use in the MIST stellar model grids. Stars less than about 1.3 are observed to spin down over time through inter…
Coordinated Assembly of Galaxy Groups and Clusters in the IllustrisTNG Simulations
Meng Gu, Charlie Conroy, Benedikt Diemer +6
Recent stellar population analysis of early-type galaxy spectra has demonstrated that the low-mass galaxies in cluster centers have high [] and old ages characteristic of…
