晕子结构的动力学和化学：室女座超密度附近
Kinematics & Chemistry of Halo Substructures: The Vicinity of the Virgo Over-Density
摘要：
我们目前的观测获得的AAT的2dF宽视场摄谱仪AAOmega的K型恒星位于一个区域内的天空，其中包含处女座的超密度和人马座流的领先的手臂。由此产生的速度直方图的基础上，我们隔离晕子结构在这些重叠的地区，包括人马座和先前发现的处女座团体。通过与银河-人马相互作用的N体模型的比较，我们发现三轴暗物质晕是有利的，我们排除了长球形。这一结果与人马座主旋臂上的其他观测结果相矛盾，后者通常倾向于长轴模型。我们还发现了人马座的K巨星成员，它们比以前的研究更缺乏金属（[Fe/H]=-1.7 +/-0.3 dex）。这表明人马座流的金属丰度分布比以前认为的要广泛得多。我们还提供了在我们的样本中发现的五颗碳星的数据。
英文摘要：
We present observations obtained with the AAT's 2dF wide field spectrograph AAOmega of K-type stars located within a region of the sky which contains the Virgo Over-Density and the leading arm of the Sagittarius Stream. On the basis of the resulting velocity histogram we isolate halo substructures in these overlapping regions including Sagittarius and previously discovered Virgo groups. Through comparisons with N-body models of the Galaxy-Sagittarius interaction, we find a tri-axial dark matter halo is favoured and we exclude a prolate shape. This result is contradictory with other observations along the Sagittarius leading arm, which typically favour prolate models. We have also uncovered K-giant members of Sagittarius that are notably more metal poor ([Fe/H] = -1.7 +/- 0.3 dex) than previous studies. This suggests a significantly wider metallicity distribution exists in the Sagittarius Stream than formerly considered. We also present data on five carbon stars which were discovered in our sample.
