A comprehensive Maximum Likelihood analysis of the structural properties of faint Milky Way satellites
Nicolas F. Martin, Jelte T. A. de Jong, Hans-Walter Rix
We derive the structural parameters of the recently discovered very low luminosity Milky Way satellites through a Maximum Likelihood algorithm applied to SDSS data. For each satell…
A Deep Survey of the Fornax dSph I: Star Formation History
Matthew G. Coleman, Jelte T. A. de Jong
Based on a deep imaging survey, we present the first homogeneous star formation history (SFH) of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy. We have obtained two-filter photometry t…
A deep Large Binocular Telescope view of the Canes Venatici I dwarf galaxy
Nicolas F. Martin, Matthew G. Coleman, Jelte T. A. De Jong +13
We present the first deep color-magnitude diagram of the Canes Venatici I (CVnI) dwarf galaxy from observations with the wide field Large Binocular Camera on the Large Binocular Te…
First Results From the Large Binocular Telescope: Deep Photometry of New dSphs
Matthew G. Coleman, Jelte de Jong
This contribution describes photometry for two Galactic dSphs obtained with the Large Binocular Telescope to a magnitude of ~25.5. Using the Large Binocular Camera, a purpose-built…
A Canis Major over-density imaging survey. I. Stellar content and star-count maps : A distinctly elongated body of main sequence stars
D. J. Butler, D. Martinez-Delgado, H-W. Rix +2
[Abridged] We present first results from a large-area (~80degx20deg), sparsely sampled two-filter (B,R) imaging survey towards the Canis Major stellar over-density, claimed to be a…
HST Imaging of MEGA Microlensing Candidates in M31
Patrick Cseresnjes, Arlin P. S. Crotts, Jelte T. A. de Jong +5
We investigate /ACS and WFPC2 images at the positions of five candidate microlensing events from a large survey of variability in M31 (MEGA). Three closely match unresolved so…
