The stretching of Hercules [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2012
Abstract We present VLT/FORS2 spectroscopy of candidate blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars in the vicinity of the Hercules ultrafaint dwarf galaxy. We identify eight convincing Hercules BHB members, and a further five stars with similar systemic velocities to that of Hercules, but ∼0.5 kpc from the centre of the galaxy along its major ...
