Stellar Streams Discovered in the Dark Energy Survey [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
We perform a search for stellar streams around the Milky Way using the first 3 yr of multiband optical imaging data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES).

Stellar streams in the Gaia era [PDF]

open access: yesNew Astronomy Reviews
The hierarchical model of galaxy formation predicts that the Milky Way halo is populated by tidal debris of dwarf galaxies and globular clusters. Due to long dynamical times, debris from the lowest mass objects remains coherent as thin and dynamically ...

Orbital Clustering Identifies the Origins of Galactic Stellar Streams

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal Letters, 2021
The origins of most stellar streams in the Milky Way are unknown. With improved proper motions provided by Gaia EDR3, we show that the orbits of 23 Galactic stellar streams are highly clustered in orbital phase space.

Stellar streams: origin and evolution

Astronomical & Astrophysical Transactions, 2006
We have made a statistical analysis of the space velocity distribution for stars in the solar neighbour-hood. Three large, probably non-random stellar streams were revealed. Those correspond to well-known moving clusters: Hyades, Pleiades and UMa. Small clumps of stars were found within the streams.
