    • Hydra II: a faint and compact milky way dwarf galaxy found in the survey ofthe magellanic stellar history 
      Martín, Nicolás F.; Nidever, David L.; Besla, Gurtina; Olsen, Knut; Walker, Alistair R.; Vivas, A. Katherina; Gruendl, Robert A.; Kaleida, Catherine C.; Muñoz Vidal, Ricardo Rodrigo; Blum, Robert D.; Saha, Abhijit; Conn, Blair; Bell, Eric; Chu, You-Hua; Cioni, María-Rosa; Boer, Thomas de; Gallart, Carme; Jin, Shoko; Kunder, Andrea; Majewski, Steven; Martínez Delgado, David; Monachesi, Antonela; Monelli, Matteo; Monteagudo, Lara; Noël, Noelia; Olszewski, Edward; Stringfellow, Guy; Van der Marel, Roeland; Zaritsky, Dennis (The American Astronomical Society, 2015)
      We present the discovery of a new dwarf galaxy, Hydra II, found serendipitously within the data from the ongoing Survey of the Magellanic Stellar History conducted with the Dark Energy Camera on the Blanco 4 m Telescope. ...
    • ON THE EXTENDED KNOTTED DISKS OF GALAXIES 
      Zaritsky, Dennis; Christlein, Daniel (2007-07)
      The stellar disks of many spiral galaxies are twice as large as generally thought. We use archival data from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer mission to quantify the statistical properties of young stellar clusters in the ...
    • SMASH 1: A very faint globular cluster disrupting in the outer reaches of the LMC? 
      Martín, Nicolás F.; Jungbluth, Valentín; Nidever, David L.; Bell, Eric F.; Besla, Gurtina; Blum, Robert D.; Cioni, María Rosa L.; Conn, Blair C.; Kaleida, Catherine C.; Gallart, Carme; Jin, Shoko; Majewski, Steven R.; Martínez Delgado, David; Monachesi, Antonela; Muñoz Vidal, Ricardo Rodrigo; Noel, Noelia E. D.; Olsen, Knut; Stringfellow, Guy S.; Van der Marel, Roeland P.; Vivas, A. Katherina; Walker, Alistair R.; Zaritsky, Dennis (IOP Publishing, 2016)
      We present the discovery of a very faint stellar system, SMASH 1, that is potentially a satellite of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Found within the Survey of the MAgellanic Stellar History (SMASH), SMASH 1 is a compact (r(h) ...
    • Young, blue, and isolated stellar systems in the virgo cluster. I. 2D Optical spectroscopy 
      Bellazzini, Michele; Magrini, Laura; Jones, Michael G.; Sand, David J.; Beccari, Giacomo; Cresci, Giovanni; Spekkens, Kristine; Karunakaran, Ananthan; Adams, Elizabeth A. K.; Zaritsky, Dennis; Battaglia, Giuseppina; Seth, Anil; Cannon, John M.; Fuson, Jackson; Inoue, John L.; Mutlu Pakdil, Burçin; Guhathakurta, Puragra; Muñoz Vidal, Ricardo Rodrigo; Bennet, Paul; Crnojević, Denija; Caldwell, Nelson; Strader, Jay; Toloba, Elisa (IOP Publishing, 2022)
      We use panoramic optical spectroscopy obtained with the Very Large Telescope/MUSE to investigate the nature of five candidate extremely isolated low-mass star-forming regions (Blue Candidates; hereafter, BCs) toward ...
    • Young, blue, and isolated stellar systems in the virgo cluster. II. A new class of stellar system 
      Jones González, Michael Cristofer; Sand, David J.; Bellazzini, Michele; Spekkens, Kristine; Karunakaran, Ananthan; Adams, Elizabeth A. K.; Battaglia, Giuseppina; Beccari, Giacomo; Bennet, Paul; Cannon, John M.; Cresci, Giovanni; Crnojević, Denija; Caldwell, Nelson; Fuson, Jackson; Guhathakurta, Puragra; Haynes, Martha P.; Inoue, John L.; Magrini, Laura; Muñoz Vidal, Ricardo Rodrigo; Burçin, Mutlu-Pakdil; Seth, Anil; Strader, Jay; Toloba, Elisa; Zaritsky, Dennis (IOP Publishing, 2022)
      We discuss five blue stellar systems in the direction of the Virgo cluster, analogous to the enigmatic object SECCO 1 (AGC 226067). These objects were identified based on their optical and UV morphology and followed up ...
