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…

First Cosmology Results using Type Ia Supernova from the Dark Energy Survey: Simulations to Correct Supernova Distance Biases

R. Kessler, D. Brout, C. B. D'Andrea +103

We describe catalog-level simulations of Type Ia supernova (SN~Ia) light curves in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova Program (DES-SN), and in low-redshift samples from the Center fo…
