Robust Measurement of Stellar Streams Around the Milky Way: Correcting Spatially Variable Observational Selection Effects in Optical Imaging Surveys
K. K. Boone, P. S. Ferguson, M. Tabbutt +47
Observations of density variations in stellar streams are a promising probe of low-mass dark matter substructure in the Milky Way. However, survey systematics such as variations in…
Ultra-Faint Milky Way Satellites Discovered in Carina, Phoenix, and Telescopium with DELVE Data Release 3
C. Y. Tan, W. Cerny, A. B. Pace +76
We report the discovery of three Milky Way satellite candidates: Carina IV, Phoenix III, and DELVE 7, in the third data release of the DECam Local Volume Exploration survey (DELVE)…
Electron temperature relations and the direct N, O, Ne, S and Ar abundances of 49959 star-forming galaxies in DESI Data Release 2
D. Scholte, F. Cullen, J. M. Moustakas +43
We present the largest direct-method abundance catalogue of galaxies to date, containing measurements of 49959 star-forming galaxies at z < 0.96 from DESI Data Release 2. By direct…
The Hierarchical Growth of Bright Central Galaxies and Intracluster Light as Traced by the Magnitude Gap
Jesse B. Golden-Marx, Y. Zhang, R. L. C. Ogando +48
Using a sample of 2800 galaxy clusters identified in the Dark Energy Survey across the redshift range , we characterize the hierarchical assembly of Bright Central…
