LMC Calls, Milky Way Halo Answers: Disentangling the Effects of the MW--LMC Interaction on Stellar Stream Populations
Richard A. N. Brooks, Nicolás Garavito-Camargo, Kathryn V. Johnston +3
The infall of the LMC into the Milky Way (MW) has dynamical implications throughout the MW's dark matter halo. We study the impact of this merger on the statistical properties of p…
The distant Milky Way halo from the Southern hemisphere: Characterization of the LMC-induced dynamical-friction wake
Manuel Cavieres, Julio Chanamé, Camila Navarrete +6
The infall of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) into the Milky Way's halo impacts the distribution of stars and dark matter in our Galaxy. Mapping the observational consequences of…
The All-Sky Impact of the LMC on the Milky Way Circumgalactic Medium
Christopher Carr, Greg L. Bryan, Nicolás Garavito-Camargo +3
The first infall of the LMC into the Milky Way (MW) represents a large and recent disruption to the MW circumgalactic medium (CGM). In this work, we use idealized, hydrodynamical s…
Segue 2 Recently Collided with the Cetus-Palca Stream: New Opportunities to Constrain Dark Matter in an Ultra-Faint Dwarf
Hayden R. Foote, Gurtina Besla, Nicolás Garavito-Camargo +7
Stellar streams in the Milky Way are promising detectors of low-mass dark matter (DM) subhalos predicted by CDM. Passing subhalos induce perturbations in streams that indicate t…
Efficient and accurate force replay in cosmological-baryonic simulations
Arpit Arora, Robyn Sanderson, Christopher Regan +8
We construct time-evolving gravitational potential models for a Milky Way-mass galaxy from the FIRE-2 suite of cosmological-baryonic simulations using basis function expansions. Th…
All-Sky Kinematics of the Distant Halo: The Reflex Response to the LMC
Vedant Chandra, Rohan P. Naidu, Charlie Conroy +11
The infall of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is predicted to displace the inner Milky Way (MW), imprinting an apparent 'reflex motion' on the observed velocities of distant halo…
