The Star Formation History and Evolution of the Ultra-Diffuse M81 Satellite F8D1
Adam Smercina, Eric F. Bell, Benjamin F. Williams +15
We present deep HST imaging of one of the nearest ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) outside of the Local Group: F8D1, a satellite of M81 known to be tidally disrupting. UDGs are an eni…
A Timeline of the M81 Group: Properties of the Extended Structures of M82 and NGC 3077
Benjamin N. Velguth, Eric F. Bell, Adam Smercina +8
Mergers of and interactions between galaxies imprint a wide diversity of morphological, dynamical, and chemical characteristics in stellar halos and tidal streams. Measuring these…
Origins of the Evil Eye: M64's Stellar Halo Reveals the Recent Accretion of an SMC-mass Satellite
Adam Smercina, Eric F. Bell, Paul A. Price +9
M64, often called the "Evil Eye" galaxy, is unique among local galaxies. Beyond its dramatic, dusty nucleus, it also hosts an outer gas disk that counter-rotates relative to its st…
Saying Hallo to M94's Stellar Halo: Investigating the Accretion History of the Largest Pseudobulge Host in the Local Universe
Katya Gozman, Eric F. Bell, Adam Smercina +7
It is not yet settled how the combination of secular processes and merging gives rise to the bulges and pseudobulges of galaxies. The nearby ( 4.2 Mpc) disk galaxy M94 (NGC…
Faro: A framework for measuring the scientific performance of petascale Rubin Observatory data products
Leanne P. Guy, Keith Bechtol, Jeffrey L. Carlin +14
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory will advance many areas of astronomy over the next decade with its unique wide-fast-deep multi-color imaging survey, the Legacy Survey of Space and Ti…
The Astronomy Commons Platform: A Deployable Cloud-Based Analysis Platform for Astronomy
Steven Stetzler, Mario Jurić, Kyle Boone +3
We present a scalable, cloud-based science platform solution designed to enable next-to-the-data analyses of terabyte-scale astronomical tabular datasets. The presented platform is…
