Detailed Chemical Abundance Analysis of the Brightest Stars in the Turranburra and Willka Yaku Stellar Streams
Kaitlin B. Webber, Terese T. Hansen, Jennifer L. Marshall +20
We present a detailed chemical abundance analysis of the three brightest known stars from each of the Turranburra and Willka Yaku stellar streams using high-resolution Magellan/MIK…
: Tidal Disruption in Crater 2 and Formation of Diffuse Dwarf Galaxies in the Local Group
Guilherme Limberg, Alexander P. Ji, Ting S. Li +19
We present results of a spectroscopic campaign around the diffuse dwarf galaxy Crater 2 (Cra2) and its tidal tails as part of the Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopic Survey ($S^5…
Unveiling M33's Hidden Merger History: A Potential Population of Star Clusters on Retrograde Orbits
Borja Anguiano, Geraint F. Lewis, Steven R. Majewski
We report the discovery of a possible sub-population of stellar clusters that appear to follow retrograde orbits around the third largest galaxy in the Local Group, M33 (Triangulum…
Accreted Globular Clusters and Horizontal Branch Morphology in the Outer Halo of M31
Gracie McGill, Annette M. N. Ferguson, Dougal Mackey +7
M31 hosts a rich population of outer halo ( kpc) globular clusters (GCs), many of which show strong evidence for spatial and/or kinematical associations with la…
Sifting for a Stream: The Morphology of the Stellar Stream
Benjamin Cohen, Alexander P. Ji, Peter S. Ferguson +18
Stellar streams are sensitive laboratories for understanding the small-scale structure in our Galaxy's gravitational field. Here, we analyze the morphology of the stellar st…
Flipping of the tidal tails of the Ophiuchus stream due to the decelerating Galactic bar
Yong Yang, Geraint F. Lewis, Denis Erkal +16
The Ophiuchus stellar stream presents a puzzle due to its complicated morphology, with a substructure perpendicular to the main track (spur), a broadened tail (fanning), and a shor…
The GALAH survey: Improving chemical abundances using star clusters
Janez Kos, Sven Buder, Kevin L. Beeson +18
Large spectroscopic surveys aim to consistently compute stellar parameters of very diverse stars while minimizing systematic errors. We explore the use of stellar clusters as bench…
The Hubble Space Telescope Survey of M31 Satellite Galaxies IV. Survey Overview and Lifetime Star Formation Histories
A. Savino, D. R. Weisz, A. E. Dolphin +35
From orbits of HST imaging, we present deep homogeneous resolved star color-magnitude diagrams that reach the oldest main sequence turnoff and uniformly measured star forma…
