Magellan/M2FS and MMT/Hectochelle Spectroscopy of Dwarf Galaxies and Faint Star Clusters within the Galactic Halo
Matthew G. Walker, Nelson Caldwell, Mario Mateo +5
We present spectroscopic data for 16369 stellar targets within and/or toward 38 dwarf spheroidal galaxies and faint star clusters within the Milky Way halo environment. All spectra…
The Kinematics, Metallicities, and Orbits of Six Recently Discovered Galactic Star Clusters with Magellan/M2FS Spectroscopy
Andrew B. Pace, Sergey E. Koposov, Matthew G. Walker +9
We present Magellan/M2FS spectroscopy of four recently discovered Milky Way star clusters (Gran 3/Patchick~125, Gran 4, Garro 01, LP 866) and two newly discovered open clusters (Ga…
Metal Mixing in the R-Process Enhanced Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Reticulum II
Alexander P. Ji, Joshua D. Simon, Ian U. Roederer +9
The ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Reticulum~II was enriched by a single rare and prolific r-process event. The r-process content of Reticulum~II thus provides a unique opportunity to st…
A population of luminous globular clusters and stripped nuclei with elevated mass to light ratios around NGC 5128
Antoine Dumont, Anil C. Seth, Jay Strader +8
The dense central regions of tidally disrupted galaxies can survive as ultra-compact dwarfs (UCDs) that hide among the luminous globular clusters (GCs) in the halo of massive galax…
Spectroscopic Confirmation of the Sixth Globular Cluster in the Fornax Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy
Andrew B. Pace, Matthew G. Walker, Sergey E. Koposov +5
The Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy has an anomalous number of globular clusters, five, for its stellar mass. There is a longstanding debate about a potential sixth globular cluster…
Dynamical masses and mass-to-light ratios of resolved massive star clusters -- II. Results for 26 star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds
Ying-Yi Song, Mario Mateo, John I. Bailey +5
We present spectroscopy of individual stars in 26 Magellanic Cloud (MC) star clusters with the aim of estimating dynamical masses and -band mass-to-light () ratios over a…
