LSST Cadence Optimization White Paper in Support of Observations of Unresolved Tidal Stellar Streams in Galaxies beyond the Local Group

Seppo Laine, David Martinez-Delgado, Ignacio Trujillo +11

Deep observations of faint surface brightness stellar tidal streams in external galaxies with LSST are addressed in this White Paper contribution. We propose using the Wide--Fast--…

The total mass of the Large Magellanic Cloud from its perturbation on the Orphan stream

D. Erkal, V. Belokurov, C. F. P. Laporte +13

In a companion paper by Koposov et al., RR Lyrae from \textit{Gaia} Data Release 2 are used to demonstrate that stars in the Orphan stream have velocity vectors significantly misal…

Piercing the Milky Way: an all-sky view of the Orphan Stream

S. E. Koposov, V. Belokurov, T. S. Li +13

We use astrometry, broad-band photometry and variability information from the Data Release 2 of ESA's Gaia mission (GDR2) to identify members of the Orphan Stream (OS) across the w…

Stellar streams around the Magellanic Clouds in 4D

Camila Navarrete, Vasily Belokurov, Márcio Catelan +7

We carried out a spectroscopic follow-up program of the four new stellar stream candidates detected by Belokurov & Koposov (2016) in the outskirts of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LM…

Clouds in Arms

Vasily Belokurov, Denis Erkal

We use astrometry and broad-band photometry from Data Release 2 of the ESA's Gaia mission to map out low surface-brightness features in the stellar density distribution around the…

Abundance matching with the mean star formation rate: there is no missing satellites problem in the Milky Way above

J. I. Read, D. Erkal

We introduce a novel abundance matching technique that produces a more accurate estimate of the pre-infall halo mass, , for satellite galaxies. To achieve this, we abundan…
