Low Metallicities and Old Ages for Three Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies in the Coma Cluster

Meng Gu, Charlie Conroy, David Law +17

A large population of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) was recently discovered in the Coma cluster. Here we present optical spectra of three such UDGs, DF7, DF44 and DF17, which have…

The clustering of the SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey DR14 quasar sample: First measurement of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations between redshift 0.8 and 2.2

Metin Ata, Falk Baumgarten, Julian Bautista +60

We present measurements of the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) scale in redshift-space using the clustering of quasars. We consider a sample of 147,000 quasars from the extended…

Little Bear's Pulsating Stars: Variable Star Census of dSph UMi Galaxy

K. Kinemuchi, E. Jeffery, C. Kuehn +2

Recent observations and a photometric search for variable stars in the Ursa Minor dwarf spheroidal galaxy (UMi dSph) are presented. Our observations were taken at Apache Point Obse…
