Distribution functions for the modelling of accretion remnants in Milky Way-like galaxies: insights from IllustrisTNG
James M. M. Lane, Jo Bovy
We study accretion remnants around Milky Way analogs in the IllustrisTNG simulations to determine how well commonly used distribution functions (DFs) describe their phase-space dis…
A catalogue of Galactic GEMS: Globular cluster Extra-tidal Mock Stars
Steffani M. Grondin, Jeremy J. Webb, James M. M. Lane +2
This work presents the Globular cluster Extra-tidal Mock Star (GEMS) catalogue of extra-tidal stars and binaries created via three-body dynamical encounters in globular cluster cor…
The stellar mass of the Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus accretion remnant
James Lane, Jo Bovy, Ted Mackereth
The \textit{Gaia}-Sausage/Enceladus (GS/E) structure is an accretion remnant which comprises a large fraction of the Milky Way's stellar halo. We study GS/E using high-purity sampl…
The JCMT Transient Survey: Four Year Summary of Monitoring the Submillimeter Variability of Protostars
Yong-Hee Lee, Doug Johnstone, Jeong-Eun Lee +49
We present the four-year survey results of monthly submillimeter monitoring of eight nearby (pc) star-forming regions by the JCMT Transient Survey. We apply the Lomb-Scargl…
The Kinematic Properties of Milky Way Stellar Halo Populations
James M. M. Lane, Jo Bovy, J. Ted Mackereth
In the era stellar kinematics are extensively used to study Galactic halo stellar populations, to search for halo structures, and to characterize the interface between the h…
Chemo-dynamics of outer halo dwarf stars, including \textit{Gaia}-Sausage and \textit{Gaia}-Sequoia candidates
Stephanie Monty, Kim A. Venn, James M. M. Lane +2
The low-metallicity, kinematically interesting dwarf stars studied by Stephens \& Boesgaard (2002, SB02) are re-examined using Gaia DR2 astrometry, and updated model atmospheres an…
The Ophiuchus stream progenitor: a new type of globular cluster and its possible Sagittarius connection
James M. M. Lane, Julio F. Navarro, Azadeh Fattahi +2
The Ophiuchus stream is a short arc-like stellar feature of uncertain origin located kpc North of the Galactic centre. New proper motions from the second data relea…
The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: A First Look at the Auriga-California Molecular Cloud with SCUBA-2
H. Broekhoven-Fiene, B. C. Matthews, P. Harvey +57
We present 850 and 450 micron observations of the dense regions within the Auriga-California molecular cloud using SCUBA-2 as part of the JCMT Gould Belt Legacy Survey to identify…
The JCMT Transient Survey: Stochastic and Secular Variability of Protostars and Disks In the Sub-Millimeter Observed Over Eighteen Months
Doug Johnstone, Gregory J. Herczeg, Steve Mairs +18
We analyze results from the first eighteen months of monthly sub-mm monitoring of eight star-forming regions in the JCMT Transient Survey. In our search for stochastic variability…
The JCMT Transient Survey: Identifying Submillimetre Continuum Variability over Several Year Timescales Using Archival JCMT Gould Belt Survey Observations
Steve Mairs, Doug Johnstone, Helen Kirk +19
Investigating variability at the earliest stages of low-mass star formation is fundamental in understanding how a protostar assembles mass. While many simulations of protostellar d…
How do stars gain their mass? A JCMT/SCUBA-2 Transient Survey of Protostars in Nearby Star Forming Regions
Gregory J. Herczeg, Doug Johnstone, Steve Mairs +55
Most protostars have luminosities that are fainter than expected from steady accretion over the protostellar lifetime. The solution to this problem may lie in episodic mass accreti…
The JCMT Transient Survey: Data Reduction and Calibration Methods
Steve Mairs, James Lane, Doug Johnstone +7
Though there has been a significant amount of work investigating the early stages of low-mass star formation in recent years, the evolution of the mass assembly rate onto the centr…
The JCMT Gould Belt Survey: Dense Core Clusters in Orion B
H. Kirk, D. Johnstone, J. Di Francesco +17
The JCMT Gould Belt Legacy Survey obtained SCUBA-2 observations of dense cores within three sub-regions of Orion B: LDN 1622, NGC 2023/2024, and NGC 2068/2071, all of which contain…
