A stellar over-density associated with the Small Magellanic Cloud
A. Pieres, B. X. Santiago, A. Drlica-Wagner +64
We report the discovery of a stellar over-density 8 north of the center of the Small Magellanic Cloud (Small Magellanic Cloud Northern Over-Density; SMCNOD) using data fr…
A Study of Quasar Selection in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova fields
S. S. Tie, P. Martini, D. Mudd +75
We present a study of quasar selection using the DES supernova fields. We used a quasar catalog from an overlapping portion of the SDSS Stripe 82 region to quantify the completenes…
Nearest Neighbor: The Low-Mass Milky Way Satellite Tucana III
J. D. Simon, T. S. Li, A. Drlica-Wagner +56
We present Magellan/IMACS spectroscopy of the recently discovered Milky Way satellite Tucana III (Tuc III). We identify 26 member stars in Tuc III, from which we measure a mean rad…
The Dark Energy Survey view of the Sagittarius stream: discovery of two faint stellar system candidates
E. Luque, A. Pieres, B. Santiago +63
We report the discovery of two new candidate stellar systems in the constellation of Cetus using the data from the first two years of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). The objects, DES…
Galaxy Populations in Massive Galaxy Clusters to z=1.1: Color Distribution, Concentration, Halo Occupation Number and Red Sequence Fraction
C. Hennig, J. J. Mohr, A. Zenteno +70
We study the galaxy populations in 74 Sunyaev Zeldovich Effect (SZE) selected clusters from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) survey that have been imaged in the science verification…
Comparing Dark Energy Survey and HST-CLASH observations of the galaxy cluster RXC J2248.7-4431: implications for stellar mass versus dark matter
A. Palmese, O. Lahav, M. Banerji +65
We derive the stellar mass fraction in the galaxy cluster RXC J2248.7-4431 observed with the Dark Energy Survey (DES) during the Science Verification period. We compare the stellar…
