The Pristine Dwarf-galaxy Survey: Vi. a Vlt/flames Spectroscopic Study of the Dwarf Galaxy Bootes Ii

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

Aims. The Milky Way has a large population of dwarf galaxy satellites. Their properties are sensitive to both cosmology and the physical processes underlying galaxy formation, but these properties are still not properly characterised for the entire satelli ...

The Pristine survey: XXV. The very metal-poor Galaxy: Chemodynamics through the follow-up of the Pristine- Gaia synthetic catalogue

Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

Context. The Pristine-Gaia synthetic catalogue of reliable photometric metallicities makes use of spectrophotometric information from Gaia DR3 XP spectra to calculate metallicity-sensitive CaHK magnitudes, which in turn provides photometric metallicities f ...

Stellar Metallicities and Gradients in the Isolated, Quenched Low-mass Galaxy Tucana

Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We measure the metallicities of 374 red giant branch (RGB) stars in the isolated, quenched dwarf galaxy Tucana using Hubble Space Telescope (HST) narrow-band (F395N) Calcium H & K (CaHK) imaging. Our sample is a factor of similar to 7 similar to 7 larger t ...

Gaia's brightest very metal-poor (VMP) stars Metallicity catalogue of a thousand VMP stars from Gaia's radial velocity spectrometer spectra

Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

Context. Gaia DR3 has offered the scientific community a remarkable dataset of approximately one million spectra acquired with the radial velocity spectrometer (RVS) in the calcium II triplet region, which is well suited to identify very metal-poor (VMP) s ...

Stellar Metallicities and Gradients in the Faint M31 Satellites Andromeda XVI and Andromeda XXVIII

Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We present ∼300 stellar metallicity measurements in two faint M31 dwarf galaxies, Andromeda XVI (M V = −7.5) and Andromeda XXVIII (M V = -8.8), derived using metallicity-sensitive calcium H and K narrowband Hubble Space Telescope imaging. These are the fir ...

Metallicity Distribution Functions of 13 Ultra-faint Dwarf Galaxy Candidates from Hubble Space Telescope Narrowband Imaging

Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We present uniformly measured stellar metallicities of 463 stars in 13 Milky Way (MW) ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs; M-V = -7.1 to -0.8) using narrowband CaHK (F395N) imaging taken with the Hubble Space Telescope. This represents the largest homogeneous ...

The Pristine dwarf galaxy survey-V. The edges of the dwarf galaxy Hercules

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We present a new spectroscopic study of 175 stars in the vicinity of the dwarf galaxy Hercules (d similar to 132 kpc) with data from the Anglo-Australian Telescope and its AAOmega spectrograph together with the Two Degree Field multi-object system to solve ...

Metallicity Distribution Function of the Eridanus II Ultra-faint Dwarf Galaxy from Hubble Space Telescope Narrowband Imaging

Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We use deep narrowband CaHK (F395N) imaging taken with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to construct the metallicity distribution function (MDF) of Local Group ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Eridanus II (Eri II). When combined with archival F475W and F814W data, ...

The Pristine dwarf galaxy survey - IV. Probing the outskirts of the dwarf galaxy Bootes I

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard, Romain Ely Roland Lucchesi

We present a new spectroscopic study of the dwarf galaxy Bootes I (Boo I) with data from the Anglo-Australian Telescope and its AAOmega spectrograph together with the Two Degree Field multi-object system. We observed 36 high-probability Boo I stars selecte ...

The Complexity of the Cetus Stream Unveiled from the Fusion of STREAMFINDER and StarGO

Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We combine the power of two stream-searching tools, STREAMFINDER and StarGO applied to the Gaia EDR3 data, to detect stellar debris belonging to the Cetus stream system that forms a complex, nearly polar structure around the Milky Way. In this work, we fin ...
