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…
Tracing the very early disruption of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy in the distant Milky Way halo
Manuel Bayer, Else Starkenburg, Akshara Viswanathan +3
Current models predict that at distances beyond 80 kpc in the Milky Way halo, we can find the earliest escaped stars from the merging Sagittarius dwarf galaxy. However, observation…
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…
The Pristine survey: XXVII. The extremely metal-poor stream C-19 stretches over more than 100 degrees
Zhen Yuan, Tadafumi Matsuno, Tatyana Sitnova +14
The discovery of the most metal-poor stream, C-19, provides us with a fossil record of a stellar structure born very soon after the Big Bang. In this work, we search for new C-19 m…
The Pristine survey: XXV. The very metal-poor Galaxy: Chemodynamics through the follow-up of the Pristine-Gaia synthetic catalogue
Akshara Viswanathan, Zhen Yuan, Anke Ardern-Arentsen +27
The Pristine-\textit{Gaia} synthetic catalogue provides reliable photometric metallicities for 30 million FGK stars using the Pristine survey model and Gaia XP spectra. We pe…
Gaia's brightest very metal-poor (VMP) stars. Metallicity catalogue of a thousand VMP stars from Gaia's radial velocity spectrometer spectra
Akshara Viswanathan, Else Starkenburg, Tadafumi Matsuno +10
Context. Gaia DR3 has offered the scientific community a remarkable dataset of approximately one million spectra acquired with the Radial Velocity Spectrometer (RVS) in the Calcium…
