A Kinematically-Distinct RR-Lyrae Overdensity in the Inner Regions of the Milky Way
D. I. Casetti-Dinescu, D. A. Nusdeo, T. M. Girard +2
We combine the Siding Spring Survey of RR Lyrae stars with the Southern Proper Motion Catalog 4, in order to detect and kinematically characterize overdensities in the inner halo o…
Recent Star Formation in the Leading Arm of the Magellanic Stream
Dana I. Casetti-Dinescu, Christian Moni Bidin, Terrence M. Girard +4
Strongly interacting galaxies undergo a short-lived but dramatic phase of evolution characterized by enhanced star formation, tidal tails, bridges and other morphological peculiari…
OB stars in the Leading Arm of the Magellanic Stream
C. Moni Bidin, D. I. Casetti-Dinescu, R. A. Mendez +4
We present our spectroscopic program aimed to study some new interesting features recently discovered in the Magellanic Cloud System. These were revealed by the spatial distributio…
Space Velocities of Southern Globular Clusters VII. NGC 6397, NGC 6626 (M 28) and NGC 6656 (M 22)
Dana I. Casetti-Dinescu, Terrence M. Girard, Lucie Jilkova +3
We have measured the absolute proper motions of globular clusters NGC 6397, NGC 6626 (M 22) and NGC 6656 (M 28) as part of our ongoing Southern Proper-Motion Program. The reference…
Global Gravitationally-Organized Spiral Waves and the Structure of NGC 5247
S. A. Khoperskov, A. V. Khoperskov, I. S. Khrykin +5
Using observational data, we build numerical N-body, hydrodynamical and combined equilibrium models for the spiral galaxy NGC 5247. The models turn out to be unstable towards spira…
Constraints on the Magellanic Clouds' Interaction from the Distribution of OB Stars and the Kinematics of Giants
Dana I. Casetti-Dinescu, Katherine Vieira, Terrence M. Girard +1
Young, OB-type candidates are identified in a ~7900 sq-deg. region encompassing the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC/SMC) periphery, the Bridge, part of the Magellanic Stream…
