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…
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…
Discovery of two gravitationally lensed quasars in the Dark Energy Survey
Adriano Agnello, Tommaso Treu, Fernanda Ostrovski +77
We present spectroscopic confirmation of two new lensed quasars via data obtained at the 6.5m Magellan/Baade Telescope. The lens candidates have been selected from the Dark Energy…
Eight Ultra-faint Galaxy Candidates Discovered in Year Two of the Dark Energy Survey
The DES Collaboration, A. Drlica-Wagner, K. Bechtol +74
We report the discovery of eight new ultra-faint dwarf galaxy candidates in the second year of optical imaging data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Six of these candidates are d…
