Detailed Abundances in the Ultra-faint Magellanic Satellites Carina II and III
Alexander P. Ji, Ting S. Li, Joshua D. Simon +15
We present the first detailed elemental abundances in the ultra-faint Magellanic satellite galaxies Carina II (Car II) and Carina III (Car III). With high-resolution Magellan/MIKE…
Constraining the Milky Way Mass Profile with Phase-Space Distribution of Satellite Galaxies
Zhao-Zhou Li, Yong-Zhong Qian, Jiaxin Han +3
We estimate the Milky Way (MW) halo properties using satellite kinematic data including the latest measurements from Gaia DR2. With a simulation-based 6D phase-space distribution f…
Petabytes to Science
Amanda E. Bauer, Eric C. Bellm, Adam S. Bolton +24
A Kavli foundation sponsored workshop on the theme \emph{Petabytes to Science} was held 12 to 14 of February 2019 in Las Vegas. The aim of the this workshop was to di…
Astrophysical Tests of Dark Matter with Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer
Ting S. Li, Manoj Kaplinghat, Keith Bechtol +27
We discuss how astrophysical observations with the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE), a high-multiplexity (about 4300 fibers), wide field-of-view (1.5 square degree), large tel…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Local Dwarf Galaxy Archaeology
Alexander P. Ji, Rachel Beaton, Sukanya Chakrabarti +8
Nearby dwarf galaxies are local analogues of high-redshift and metal-poor stellar populations. Most of these systems ceased star formation long ago, but they retain signatures of t…
The Multidimensional Milky Way
Robyn E. Sanderson, Jeffrey L. Carlin, Emily C. Cunningham +6
Studying our Galaxy, the Milky Way (MW), gives us a close-up view of the interplay between cosmology, dark matter, and galaxy formation. In the next decade our understanding of the…
