Discovery of a Faint Old Stellar System at 150 kpc

T. Sakamoto, T. Hasegawa

We report the detection of a faint old stellar system at (SDSS J1257+3419), based on the spatial distribution of bright red-giant branch stars i…

Kinematics of Tidal Debris from Omega Centauri's Progenitor Galaxy

Arihiro Mizutani, Masashi Chiba, Tsuyoshi Sakamoto

We present the kinematic properties of a tidally disrupted dwarf galaxy in the Milky Way, based on the hypothesis that its central part once contained the most massive Galactic glo…

The Mass of the Milky Way: Limits from a Newly Assembled Set of Halo Objects

Tsuyoshi Sakamoto, Masashi Chiba, Timothy C. Beers

We set new limits on the mass of the Milky Way, making use of the latest kinematic information for Galactic satellites and halo objects. In order to bind these sample objects to th…

Relativistic Thermal Bremsstrahlung Gaunt Factor for the Intracluster Plasma. III. Analytic Fitting Formula for the Nonrelativistic Exact Gaunt Factor

Naoki Itoh, Shugo Kusano, Tsuyoshi Sakamoto +2

We present an accurate analytic fitting formula for the thermal bremsstrahlung Gaunt factor in the nonrelativistic limit. The fitting formula excellently reproduces the numerical r…
