Correlation between the two-armed spiral in the -- plane and moving groups

Yan Xu, Chao Liu, Chengdong Li +5

We use a cross-matched sample of 3.7 million stars from Gaia DR3 and LAMOST DR7 to investigate the velocity substructures in the Milky Way disk. The median radial velocity as…

Estimate of Current Mass of the Large Magellanic Cloud from the Orphan-Chenab Tidal Stream

Hiroka T. Warren, Heidi Jo Newberg, Autumn G. Guffey +3

By fitting the tilt in the path of the Orphan-Chenab Stream (OCS), we conclude that the current mass of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) within 30 kpc is -…

The Dispersion Leverage Coronagraph (DLC): A nulling coronagraph for use on primary objective grating telescopes

Leaf Swordy, Heidi Jo Newberg, Becket Hill +5

We present the Dispersion Leverage Coronagraph (DLC), a novel variation of the Achromatic Interfero Coronagraph (AIC) that is designed for optical systems featuring large, dispersi…

The Debris of the "Last Major Merger" is Dynamically Young

Thomas Donlon, Heidi Jo Newberg, Robyn Sanderson +4

The Milky Way's (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the "last major merger." Hypotheses for the origin of t…

Exploring asymmetric substructures of the outer disk based on the conjugate angle of the radial action

Y. Xu, C. Liu, Z. Li +5

We use the conjugate angle of radial action (), the best representation of the orbital phase, to explore the "mid-plane, north branch, south branch" and "Monoceros area" disk…

Primary Objective Grating Telescopy: Optical Properties and Feasibility of Applications

Leaf Swordy, Heidi Jo Newberg, Thomas Ditto

We develop the theoretical foundation for primary objective grating (POG) telescopy. In recent years, a wide range of telescope designs that collect the light over a large grating…
