A survey for dwarf galaxy remnants around 14 globular clusters in the outer halo
(Oxford University Press, 2018-06)
We report the results of a systematic photometric survey of the peripheral regions of a sample of 14 globular clusters in the outer halo of the Milky Way at distances d(GC) > 25 kpc from the Galactic Centre. The survey is ...
Block time step storage scheme forastrophysical n-body simulations
(IOP Publishing, 2015)
Astrophysical research in recent decades has made significant progress thanks to the availability of various N-body simulation techniques. With the rapid development of high-performance computing technologies, modern ...
A MegaCam Survey of Outer Halo Satellites. VII. A Single Sérsic Index versus Effective Radius Relation for Milky Way Outer Halo Satellites
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2019)
In this work, we use structural properties of the Milky Way's outer halo (R G > 25 kpc) satellites (dwarf spheroidal galaxies, ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxies and globular clusters (GCs)) derived from deep, wide-field, ...
A megacam survey of outer halo satellites. III. Photometric and structural parameters
(The American Astronomical Society, 2018-06-10)
We present structural parameters from a wide-field homogeneous imaging survey of Milky Way satellites carried out with the MegaCam imagers on the 3.6 m Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope and 6.5 m Magellan-Clay telescope. Our ...
A megacam survey of outer halo satellites. I. description of the survey
(IOP Publishing, 2018-06-10)
We describe a deep, systematic imaging study of satellites in the outer halo of the Milky Way. Our sample consists of 58 stellar overdensities-i.e., substructures classified as either globular clusters, classical dwarf ...
SMASHing the low surface brightness SMC
(Oxford University Press, 2020)
The periphery of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) can unlock important information regarding galaxy formation and evolution in interacting systems. Here, we present a detailed study of the extended stellar structure of the ...
