The cold veil of the Milky Way stellar halo (2012)
Journal Article
Deason, A., Belokurov, V., Evans, N., Koposov, S., Cooke, R., Peñarrubia, J., …Olszewski, E. (2012). The cold veil of the Milky Way stellar halo. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 425(4), 2840-2853. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2012.21639.x

We build a sample of distant (D > 80 kpc) stellar halo stars with measured radial velocities. Faint (20 < g < 22) candidate blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars were selected using the deep, but wide, multi-epoch Sloan Digital Sky Survey photometry. Fo...

Global structure and kinematics of stellar haloes in cosmological hydrodynamic simulations (2012)
Journal Article
McCarthy, I., Font, A., Crain, R., Deason, A., Schaye, J., & Theuns, T. (2012). Global structure and kinematics of stellar haloes in cosmological hydrodynamic simulations. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 420(3), 2245-2262. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.20189.x

We use the Galaxies–Intergalactic Medium Interaction Calculation (GIMIC) suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations to study the global structure and kinematics of stellar spheroids of Milky Way mass disc galaxies. Font et al. have recently dem... Read More about Global structure and kinematics of stellar haloes in cosmological hydrodynamic simulations.
