A Study of Quasar Selection in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova fields
S. S. Tie, P. Martini, D. Mudd +75
We present a study of quasar selection using the DES supernova fields. We used a quasar catalog from an overlapping portion of the SDSS Stripe 82 region to quantify the completenes…
Farthest Neighbor: The Distant Milky Way Satellite Eridanus II
T. S. Li, J. D. Simon, A. Drlica-Wagner +56
We present Magellan/IMACS spectroscopy of the recently-discovered Milky Way satellite Eridanus II (Eri II). We identify 28 member stars in Eri II, from which we measure a systemic…
Nearest Neighbor: The Low-Mass Milky Way Satellite Tucana III
J. D. Simon, T. S. Li, A. Drlica-Wagner +56
We present Magellan/IMACS spectroscopy of the recently discovered Milky Way satellite Tucana III (Tuc III). We identify 26 member stars in Tuc III, from which we measure a mean rad…
The Dark Energy Survey view of the Sagittarius stream: discovery of two faint stellar system candidates
E. Luque, A. Pieres, B. Santiago +63
We report the discovery of two new candidate stellar systems in the constellation of Cetus using the data from the first two years of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). The objects, DES…
Discovery of a z=0.65 Post-Starburst BAL Quasar in the DES Supernova Fields
Dale Mudd, Paul Martini, Suk Sien Tie +55
We present the discovery of a z=0.65 low-ionization broad absorption line (LoBAL) quasar in a post-starburst galaxy in data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) and spectroscopy from…
Galaxy Populations in Massive Galaxy Clusters to z=1.1: Color Distribution, Concentration, Halo Occupation Number and Red Sequence Fraction
C. Hennig, J. J. Mohr, A. Zenteno +70
We study the galaxy populations in 74 Sunyaev Zeldovich Effect (SZE) selected clusters from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) survey that have been imaged in the science verification…
Physical properties of star clusters in the outer LMC as observed by the Dark Energy Survey
A. Pieres, B. Santiago, E. Balbinot +57
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) harbors a rich and diverse system of star clusters, whose ages, chemical abundances, and positions provide information about the LMC history of sta…
Planck intermediate results. XXXIX. The Planck list of high-redshift source candidates
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +186
The Planck mission, thanks to its large frequency range and all-sky coverage, has a unique potential for systematically detecting the brightest, and rarest, submillimetre sources o…
