ED-2: a cold but not so narrow stellar stream crossing the Solar neighbourhood

E. Balbinot, A. Helmi, T. Callingham +3

ED-2 is a stellar stream identified as a compact group in integrals of motion space in a local sample of halo stars from the third Gaia data release. Here we investigate its nature…

The Gaia DR3 view of dynamical substructure in the stellar halo near the Sun

Emma Dodd, Thomas M. Callingham, Amina Helmi +4

The debris from past merger events is expected and, to some extent, known to populate the stellar halo near the Sun. We aim to identify and characterise such merger debris using Ga…

High-precision chemical abundances of Galactic building blocks. II. Revisiting the chemical distinctness of the Helmi streams

Tadafumi Matsuno, Emma Dodd, Helmer H. Koppelman +6

Context: The Helmi streams are a kinematic substructure whose progenitor is likely a dwarf galaxy. Although 20 years have passed since their discovery, it is still unclear whether…

Substructure in the stellar halo near the Sun. II. Characterisation of independent structures

Tomás Ruiz-Lara, Tadafumi Matsuno, S. Sofie Lövdal +3

In Lövdal et al, we presented a data-driven method for clustering in Integrals of Motion space and applied it to a large sample of nearby halo stars with 6D phase-space information…

Substructure in the stellar halo near the Sun. I. Data-driven clustering in Integrals of Motion space

S. Sofie Lövdal, Tomás Ruiz-Lara, Helmer H. Koppelman +3

Aims: Develop a data-driven and statistically based method for finding such clumps in Integrals of Motion space for nearby halo stars and evaluating their significance robustly. Me…

Substructures, Resonances and debris streams

Emma Dodd, Amina Helmi, Helmer H. Koppelman

The local stellar halo of the Milky Way contains the debris from several past accretion events. Here we study in detail the structure and properties of nearby debris associated wit…
