Evidence for the First Globular Cluster Stellar Stream beyond the Milky Way
Julie Kiel Holm, Sarah Pearson, Jacob Nibauer +5
The dark matter content of ultra-diffuse galaxies is the subject of considerable debate. Stellar streams, which form when a host galaxy tidally strips stars from an orbiting stella…
Identifying Dwarfs of MC Analog GalaxiEs (ID-MAGE): The Search for Satellites Around Low-Mass Hosts
Laura Congreve Hunter, Burçin Mutlu-Pakdil, David J. Sand +11
We present results from ID-MAGE (Identifying Dwarfs of MC Analog GalaxiEs), a survey aimed at identifying and characterizing unresolved satellite galaxies around 36~nearby LMC- and…
Star formation histories and gas content limits of three ultra-faint dwarfs on the periphery of M31
Michael G. Jones, David J. Sand, Paul Bennet +9
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging of Pegasus V and Pisces VII, along with a re-analysis of the archival imaging of Pegasus W, and Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) neutra…
SEAMLESS Survey: Four Faint Dwarf Galaxies Tracing Low-Mass Galaxy Evolution Across Environments
Catherine E. Fielder, Michael G. Jones, David J. Sand +11
We report on four Local Volume dwarf galaxies identified through our ongoing SEmi-Automated Machine LEarning Search for Semi-resolved galaxies (SEAMLESS): Hydrus A, LEDA 486718, Ce…
Subhalos are Anisotropically Distributed and Aligned with the Smooth Matter Distribution of Their Host Halos
Lorena Mezini, Andrew R. Zentner, Kuan Wang +1
We investigate the distributions of subhalos about their hosts in two suites of zoom-in N-body simulations of halo growth -- one suite focused on Milky Way-Mass halos ($\sim 10^{12…
Hubble Space Telescope Imaging of Three Isolated Faint Dwarf Galaxies Beyond the Local Group: Pavo, Corvus A, and Kamino
Burçin Mutlu-Pakdil, Michael G. Jones, David J. Sand +14
We present new Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging of three recently discovered star-forming dwarf galaxies beyond the Local Group: Pavo, Corvus A, and Kamino. The discovery of Ka…
