Differential reddening in 48 globular clusters: An end to the quest for the intracluster medium
E. Pancino, A. Zocchi, M. Rainer +9
For decades, it has been theorized that a tenuous but detectable intracluster medium should be present in globular clusters, which is continuously replenished by the gas and dust e…

Taking the pulse of the outer Milky Way with HOWVAST: an RR Lyrae density profile out to 200 kpc
Gustavo E. Medina, Ricardo R. Muñoz, Jeffrey L. Carlin +4
In order to constrain the evolutionary history of the Milky Way, we hunt for faint RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) using Dark Energy Camera data from the High cadence Transient Survey (HiTS)…

Chemical Analysis of the Brightest Star of the Cetus II Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Candidate
K. B. Webber, T. T. Hansen, J. L. Marshall +42
We present a detailed chemical abundance analysis of the brightest star in the ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxy candidate Cetus II from high-resolution Magellan/MIKE spectra. For thi…
