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 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…
