Received 2020 July 16; in original form 2020 February 24 ABSTRACT We present the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) imaging combined with Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2) data to study the Canis Major overdensity. The presence of the so-called Blue Plume stars in a low-pollution area of the colour–magnitude diagram allows us to derive the distance and proper motions of this stellar feature along the line of sight of its hypothetical core. The stellar overdensity extends on a large area of the sky at low Galactic latitudes, below the plane, and in the range 230◦ <<255◦. -

Messier Objects
Messier Objects From the Stocker Astroscience Center at Florida International University Miami Florida The Messier Project Main contributors: • Daniel Puentes • Steven Revesz • Bobby Martinez Charles Messier • Gabriel Salazar • Riya Gandhi • Dr. James Webb – Director, Stocker Astroscience center • All images reduced and combined using MIRA image processing software. (Mirametrics) What are Messier Objects? • Messier objects are a list of astronomical sources compiled by Charles Messier, an 18th and early 19th century astronomer. He created a list of distracting objects to avoid while comet hunting. This list now contains over 110 objects, many of which are the most famous astronomical bodies known. The list contains planetary nebula, star clusters, and other galaxies. - Bobby Martinez The Telescope The telescope used to take these images is an Astronomical Consultants and Equipment (ACE) 24- inch (0.61-meter) Ritchey-Chretien reflecting telescope. It has a focal ratio of F6.2 and is supported on a structure independent of the building that houses it. It is equipped with a Finger Lakes 1kx1k CCD camera cooled to -30o C at the Cassegrain focus. It is equipped with dual filter wheels, the first containing UBVRI scientific filters and the second RGBL color filters. Messier 1 Found 6,500 light years away in the constellation of Taurus, the Crab Nebula (known as M1) is a supernova remnant. The original supernova that formed the crab nebula was observed by Chinese, Japanese and Arab astronomers in 1054 AD as an incredibly bright “Guest star” which was visible for over twenty-two months. The supernova that produced the Crab Nebula is thought to have been an evolved star roughly ten times more massive than the Sun. -

The structure of outer disc of our Galaxy is still not well described, and many features need to be better understood. The second Gaia data release (DR2) provides data in unprecedented quality that can be analysed to shed some light on the outermost parts of the Milky Way. Aims. We calculate the stellar density using star counts obtained from Gaia DR2 up to a Galactocentric distance R = 20 kpc with a deconvolution technique for the parallax errors. Then we analyse the density in order to study the structure of the outer Galactic disc, mainly the warp. Methods. In order to carry out the deconvolution, we used the Lucy inversion technique for recovering the corrected star counts. We also used the Gaia luminosity function of stars with MG < 10 to extract the stellar density from the star counts. Results. The stellar density maps can be fitted by an exponential disc in the radial direction hr = 2:07 ± 0:07 kpc, with a weak dependence on the azimuth, extended up to 20 kpc without any cut-off. -

Galactic Astronomy with AO: Nearby Star Clusters and Moving Groups
Galactic astronomy with AO: Nearby star clusters and moving groups T. J. Davidgea aDominion Astrophysical Observatory, Victoria, BC Canada ABSTRACT Observations of Galactic star clusters and objects in nearby moving groups recorded with Adaptive Optics (AO) systems on Gemini South are discussed. These include observations of open and globular clusters with the GeMS system, and high Strehl L observations of the moving group member Sirius obtained with NICI. The latter data 2 fail to reveal a brown dwarf companion with a mass ≥ 0.02M in an 18 × 18 arcsec area around Sirius A. Potential future directions for AO studies of nearby star clusters and groups with systems on large telescopes are also presented. Keywords: Adaptive optics, Open clusters: individual (Haffner 16, NGC 3105), Globular Clusters: individual (NGC 1851), stars: individual (Sirius) 1. STAR CLUSTERS AND THE GALAXY Deep surveys of star-forming regions have revealed that stars do not form in isolation, but instead form in clusters or loose groups (e.g. Ref. 25). This is a somewhat surprising result given that most stars in the Galaxy and nearby galaxies are not seen to be in obvious clusters (e.g. Ref. 31). This apparent contradiction can be reconciled if clusters tend to be short-lived. In fact, the pace of cluster destruction has been measured to be roughly an order of magnitude per decade in age (Ref. 17), indicating that the vast majority of clusters have lifespans that are only a modest fraction of the dynamical crossing-time of the Galactic disk. Clusters likely disperse in response to sudden changes in mass driven by supernovae and stellar winds (e.g. -

Variable Modified Newtonian Mechanics II: Baryonic Tully Fisher Relation C. C. Wong Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Hong Kong. H.K. (Dated: February 11, 2021) Recently we find a single-metric solution for a point mass residing in an expanding universe [1], which apart from the Newtonian acceleration, gives rise to an additional MOND-like acceleration in which the MOND acceleration a0 is replaced by the cosmological acceleration. We study a Milky Way size protogalactic cloud in this acceleration, in which the growth of angular momentum can lead to an end of the overdensity growth. Within realistic redshifts, the overdensity stops growing at a value where the MOND-like acceleration dominates over Newton and the outer mass shell rotational velocity obeys the Baryonic Tully Fisher Relation (BTFR) with a smaller MOND acceleration. As the outer mass shell shrinks to a few scale length distances, the rotational velocity BTFR persists due to the conservation of angular momentum and the MOND acceleration grows to the phenomenological MOND acceleration value a0 at late time. PACS numbers: ?? INTRODUCTION A common response to the non-Newtonian rotational curve of a galaxy is that its ”Newtonian” dynamics requires cold dark matter (DM) particles. However, the small observed scatter of empirical Baryonic Tully-Fisher Relation (BTFR) of gas rich galaxies, see McGaugh [2]-Lelli [3], Milgrom [4] and Sanders [5], continues to motivate the hunt for a non-Newtonian connection between the rotational speeds and the baryon mass. On the modified DM theory front, Khoury [6] proposes a DM Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) phase where DM can interact more strongly with baryons. -

Although the halo was once considered a single component, evidence for is dichotomy has slowly emerged in recent years from inspection of small samples of halo objects. Here we show that the halo is indeed clearly divisible into two broadly overlapping structural components -- an inner and an outer halo – that exhibit different spatial density profiles, stellar orbits and stellar metallicities (abundances of elements heavier than helium). -

Walter19 Draft version July 17, 2014 ABSTRACT 0 We present FIR[50 − 300 µm]−CO luminosity relations (i.e., log LFIR = α log LCO + β) for the full CO rotational ladder from J = 1 − 0 up to J = 13 − 12 for a sample of 62 local (z ≤ 0:1) (Ultra) 11 Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIRGs; LIR[8−1000 µm] > 10 L ) using data from Herschel SPIRE-FTS and ground-based telescopes. We extend our sample to high redshifts (z > 1) by including 35 (sub)- millimeter selected dusty star forming galaxies from the literature with robust CO observations, and sufficiently well-sampled FIR/sub-millimeter spectral energy distributions (SEDs) so that accurate FIR luminosities can be deduced. The addition of luminous starbursts at high redshifts enlarge the range of the FIR−CO luminosity relations towards the high-IR-luminosity end while also significantly increasing the small amount of mid-J/high-J CO line data (J = 5 − 4 and higher) that was available prior to Herschel. This new data-set (both in terms of IR luminosity and J-ladder) reveals linear FIR−CO luminosity relations (i.e., α ' 1) for J = 1 − 0 up to J = 5 − 4, with a nearly constant normalization (β ∼ 2). -

Eggen IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE Dr. Claudia Scarlata September, 2020 c Nathan R. Eggen 2020 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Acknowledgements Foremost I thank my advisor, Dr. Claudia Scarlata, for her guidance, support, and patience over the past 3 years. I am grateful for the advice and counsel of Dr. Evan Skillman, and Anne Jaskot for her contribution to the writing process. I thank Michele Guala for his insight into turbulent flows, and Kristen McQuinn and John Cannon for providing their data used in this work. This research made use of NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED) and NASA's Astrophysical Data System. I also express gratitude to the Gemini Help Desk, which assisted the reduction process. i Dedication To Tolkien, who taught me that at times moving on is the best thing one can do. ii Abstract Pox 186 is an exceptionally small dwarf starburst galaxy hosting a stellar mass of ∼ 105 6 M . Undetected in H i (M < 10 M ) from deep 21 cm observations and with an [O iii]/[O ii] (5007/3727) ratio of 18.3 ± 0.11, Pox 186 is a promising candidate Lyman continuum emitter. It may be a possible analog of low-mass reionization-era galaxies. We present a spatially resolved kinematic study of Pox 186. We identify two distinct ionized gas components: a broad one with σ > 400 km s−1 , and a narrow one with σ < 30 km s−1 .
