Identifying RR Lyrae Variable Stars in Six Years of the Dark Energy Survey

K. M. Stringer, A. Drlica-Wagner, L. Macri +67

We present a search for RR Lyrae stars using the full six-year data set from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) covering ~5,000 sq. deg. of the southern sky. Using a multi-stage multi-va…

Discovery of an Ultra-Faint Stellar System near the Magellanic Clouds with the DECam Local Volume Exploration (DELVE) Survey

W. Cerny, A. B. Pace, A. Drlica-Wagner +29

We report the discovery of a new ultra-faint stellar system found near the Magellanic Clouds in the DECam Local Volume Exploration (DELVE) Survey. This new system, DELVE J015568…

Milky Way Satellite Census. III. Constraints on Dark Matter Properties from Observations of Milky Way Satellite Galaxies

E. O. Nadler, A. Drlica-Wagner, K. Bechtol +65

We perform a comprehensive study of Milky Way (MW) satellite galaxies to constrain the fundamental properties of dark matter (DM). This analysis fully incorporates inhomogeneities…

The tidal remnant of an unusually metal-poor globular cluster

Zhen Wan, Geraint F. Lewis, Ting S. Li +18

Globular clusters are some of the oldest bound stellar structures observed in the Universe. They are ubiquitous in large galaxies and are believed to trace intense star formation e…

Chemical Analysis of the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Grus~II. Signature of high-mass stellar nucleosynthesis

T. T. Hansen, J. L. Marshall, J. D. Simon +59

We present a detailed abundance analysis of the three brightest member stars at the top of the giant branch of the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Grus~II. All stars exhibit a higher than…
