Characterizing the disruption of Böotes III: a missing link in the Galactic halo?
Jaclyn Jensen, Daniel A. Boyea, Alan W. McConnachie +14
The authors investigate whether the Boötes III dwarf galaxy is the source of the Styx stellar stream by searching for tidal debris with Gaia data, new CaHK imaging, and matched‑fil…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). II. A Catalog of Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
Laura Ferrarese, Patrick Cote, Lauren A. MacArthur +51
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) is a deep, high resolution imaging campaign that used the 1 deg MegaCam instrument on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope to carr…
The primordial nature of the C-19 stellar stream
Kim A. Venn, Zhen Yuan, Nicolas F. Martin +32
Stellar streams, remnants of compact star systems stretched out by the tidal forces of the Milky Way, offer a unique way to study stellar populations that formed billions of years…
Cosmology from UNIONS weak lensing profiles of galaxy clusters
Charlie T. Mpetha, James E. Taylor, Yuba Amoura +12
Cosmological information is encoded in the structure of galaxy clusters. In Universes with less matter and larger initial density perturbations, clusters form earlier and have more…
Unions with UNIONS: Using galaxy-galaxy lensing to probe galaxy mergers
Isaac Cheng, Jack Elvin-Poole, Michael J. Hudson +12
We use galaxy-galaxy lensing to investigate how the dark matter (DM) haloes and stellar content of galaxies with and $10 \leq \log_{10}(M_\star/\mathrm{M}_…
Low Surface Brightness structures from annotated deep CFHT images: effects of the host galaxy's properties and environment
Elisabeth Sola, Pierre-Alain Duc, Mathias Urbano +20
Hierarchical galactic evolution models predict that mergers drive galaxy growth, producing low surface brightness (LSB) tidal features that trace galaxies' late assembly. These fai…
