Boötes IV: A New Milky Way Satellite Discovered in the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey and Implications for the Missing Satellite Problem
Daisuke Homma, Masashi Chiba, Yutaka Komiyama +13
We report on the discovery of a new Milky Way (MW) satellite in Boötes based on data from the on-going Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program (SSP). This satellite, named…
The hidden giant: discovery of an enormous Galactic dwarf satellite in Gaia DR2
G. Torrealba, V. Belokurov, S. E. Koposov +8
We report the discovery of a Milky Way satellite in the constellation of Antlia. The Antlia 2 dwarf galaxy is located behind the Galactic disc at a latitude of a…
Nine tiny star clusters in Gaia DR1, PS1 and DES
G. Torrealba, V. Belokurov, S. E. Koposov
We present the results of a systematic Milky Way satellite search performed across an array of publicly available wide-area photometric surveys. Our aim is to complement previous s…
Ships Passing in the Night: Spectroscopic Analysis of Two Ultra-Faint Satellites in the Constellation Carina
T. S. Li, J. D. Simon, A. B. Pace +21
We present Magellan/IMACS, Anglo-Australian Telescope/AAOmega+2dF, and Very Large Telescope/GIRAFFE+FLAMES spectroscopy of the CarinaII (Car II) & Carina III (Car III) dwarf galaxy…
Near-Field cosmology with RR Lyrae variable stars: A first view of substructure in the southern sky
S. Duffau, A. K. Vivas, C. Navarrete +7
We present an update of a spectroscopic follow-up survey at low-resolution of a large number of RR Lyrae halo overdensity candidates found in the southern sky. The substructure can…
Beasts of the Southern Wild: Discovery of nine Ultra Faint satellites in the vicinity of the Magellanic Clouds
Sergey E. Koposov, Vasily Belokurov, Gabriel Torrealba +1
We have used the publicly released Dark Energy Survey data to hunt for new satellites of the Milky Way in the Southern hemisphere. Our search yielded a large number of promising ca…
