Two Ultra-Faint Milky Way Stellar Systems Discovered in Early Data from the DECam Local Volume Exploration Survey
S. Mau, W. Cerny, A. B. Pace +56
We report the discovery of two ultra-faint stellar systems found in early data from the DECam Local Volume Exploration survey (DELVE). The first system, Centaurus I (DELVE J1238-40…
Chemodynamics of barred galaxies in cosmological simulations: On the Milky Way's quiescent merger history and in-situ bulge
F. Fragkoudi, R. J. J. Grand, R. Pakmor +9
We explore the chemodynamical properties of a sample of barred galaxies in the Auriga magneto-hydrodynamical cosmological zoom-in simulations, which form boxy/peanut (b/p) bulges,…
The Saga of M81: Global View of a Massive Stellar Halo in Formation
Adam Smercina, Eric F. Bell, Paul A. Price +7
Recent work has shown that Milky Way-mass galaxies display an incredible range of stellar halo properties, yet the origin of this diversity is unclear. The nearby galaxy M81 cu…
The prevalence of pseudo-bulges in the Auriga simulations
Ignacio D. Gargiulo, Antonela Monachesi, Facundo A. Gómez +7
We study the galactic bulges in the Auriga simulations, a suite of thirty cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical zoom-in simulations of late-type galaxies in Milky Way-sized dark matt…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Construction of an L* Galaxy: the Transformative Power of Wide Fields for Revealing the Past, Present and Future of the Great Andromeda System
Karoline M. Gilbert, Erik J. Tollerud, Jay Anderson +34
The Great Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is the nexus of the near-far galaxy evolution connection and a principal data point for near-field cosmology. Due to its proximity (780 kpc), M31 c…
