Local Group Dwarf Galaxy Detection Limit in the CSST survey
Han Qu, Zhen Yuan, Amandine Doliva-Dolinsky +9
We predict the dwarf galaxy detection limits for the upcoming Chinese Space Station Telescope (CSST) survey that will cover 17,500 deg of the sky with a wide field of view of…
The Pristine Inner Galaxy Survey (PIGS) V: a chemo-dynamical investigation of the early assembly of the Milky Way with the most metal-poor stars in the bulge
Federico Sestito, Kim A. Venn, Anke Arentsen +13
The investigation of the metal-poor tail in the Galactic bulge provides unique information on the early Milky Way assembly and evolution. A chemo-dynamical analysis of 17 very meta…
On the origins of extreme velocity stars as revealed by large-scale Galactic surveys
Qing-Zheng Li, Yang Huang, Xiao-Bo Dong +3
We assemble a large sample of 12,784 high-velocity stars with total velocity km s, selected from RAVE DR5, SDSS DR12, LAMOST DR8, APOGEE DR1…
Antaeus: a retrograde group of tidal debris in the Milky Way's disk plane
Pierre-Antoine Oria, Wassim Tenachi, Rodrigo Ibata +5
We present the discovery of a wide retrograde moving group in the disk plane of the Milky Way using action-angle coordinates derived from the \textit{Gaia} DR3 catalog. The structu…
Typhon: a polar stream from the outer halo raining through the Solar neighborhood
Wassim Tenachi, Pierre-Antoine Oria, Rodrigo Ibata +5
We report on the discovery in the Gaia DR3 astrometric and spectroscopic catalog of a new polar stream that is found as an over-density in action space. This structure is unique as…
The PAndAS View of the Andromeda Satellite System. III. Dwarf galaxy detection limits
Amandine Doliva-Dolinsky, Nicolas F. Martin, Guillaume F. Thomas +6
We determine the detection limits of the search for dwarf galaxies in the Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey (PAndAS) using the algorithm developed by the PAndAS team. The recover…
The Pristine Inner Galaxy Survey (PIGS) IV: A photometric metallicity analysis of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy
Sara Vitali, Anke Arentsen, Else Starkenburg +15
We present a comprehensive metallicity analysis of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy (Sgr dSph) using photometry. We base our member selection on EDR3…
High-precision chemical abundances of Galactic building blocks. II. Revisiting the chemical distinctness of the Helmi streams
Tadafumi Matsuno, Emma Dodd, Helmer H. Koppelman +6
Context: The Helmi streams are a kinematic substructure whose progenitor is likely a dwarf galaxy. Although 20 years have passed since their discovery, it is still unclear whether…
The Pristine survey XVIII: C-19: Tidal debris of a dark matter-dominated globular cluster?
Raphaël Errani, Julio F. Navarro, Rodrigo Ibata +12
The recently discovered C-19 stellar stream is a collection of kinematically associated metal-poor stars in the halo of the Milky Way lacking an obvious progenitor. The stream span…
The Pristine survey -- XVII. The C-19 stream is dynamically hot and more extended than previously thought
Zhen Yuan, Nicolas F. Martin, Rodrigo A. Ibata +22
The C-19 stream is the most metal poor stellar system ever discovered, with a mean metallicity . Its low metallicity dispersion ( 0.18 at…
The Global Dynamical Atlas of the Milky Way mergers: Constraints from Gaia EDR3 based orbits of globular clusters, stellar streams and satellite galaxies
Khyati Malhan, Rodrigo A. Ibata, Sanjib Sharma +7
The Milky Way halo was predominantly formed by the merging of numerous progenitor galaxies. However, our knowledge of this process is still incomplete, especially in regard to the…
A stellar stream remnant of a globular cluster below the metallicity floor
Nicolas F. Martin, Kim A. Venn, David S. Aguado +23
Stellar ejecta gradually enrich the gas out of which subsequent stars form, making the least chemically enriched stellar systems direct fossils of structures formed in the early un…
The Pristine survey -- XVI. The metallicity of 26 stellar streams around the Milky Way detected with the STREAMFINDER in Gaia EDR3
Nicolas F. Martin, Rodrigo A. Ibata, Else Starkenburg +21
We use the photometric metallicities provided by the panoramic Pristine survey to study the veracity and derive the metallicities of the numerous stellar streams found by the appli…
