We report the detection of three RR Lyrae (RRL) stars (two RRc and one RRab) in the ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxy Centaurus I (Cen I) and two Milky Way (MW) δ Scuti/SX Phoenicis stars based on multi-epoch giz DECam observations. The two RRc stars are located within two times the half-light radius (rh) of Cen I, while the RRab star (CenI-V3) is at ∼6 rh. The presence of three distant RRL stars clustered this tightly in space represents a 4.7σ excess relative to the smooth distribution of RRL in the Galactic halo. Using the newly detected RRL stars, we obtain a distance modulus to Cen I of μ0 = 20.354 ± 0.002 mag (σ = 0.03 mag), a heliocentric distance of De = 117.7 ± 0.1 kpc (σ = 1.6 kpc), with systematic errors of 0.07 mag and 4 kpc. The location of the Cen I RRL stars in the Bailey diagram is in agreement with other UFD galaxies (mainly Oosterhoff II). Finally, we study the relative rate of RRc+RRd (RRcd) stars (fcd) in UFD and classical dwarf galaxies. The full sample of MW dwarf galaxies gives a mean of fcd = 0.28. While several UFD galaxies, such as Cen I, present higher RRcd ratios, if we combine the RRL populations of all UFD galaxies, the RRcd ratio is similar to the one obtained for the classical dwarfs (fcd ∼ 0.3). Therefore, there is no evidence for a different fraction of RRcd stars in UFD and classical dwarf galaxies. ; Fermilab LDRD project L2019-011 NASA Fermi Guest Investigator Program Cycle 9 91201 United States Department of Energy (DOE) National Science Foundation (NSF) Spanish Government UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) Science & Technology Facilities Council (STFC) UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign University of Chicago Ohio State University Mitchell Institute for Fundamental Physics and Astronomy at Texas AM University Financiadora de Inovacao e Pesquisa (Finep) Fundaco Carlos Chagas Filho de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado do Rio de Janeiro Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cientifico e Tecnologico (CNPQ) Spanish Government German Research Foundation (DFG) Dark Energy Survey United States Department of Energy (DOE) University of California at Santa Cruz University of Cambridge, Centro de Investigaciones Energeticas, Medioambientales y Tecnologicas-Madrid University of Chicago, University College London DES-Brazil Consortium University of Edinburgh ETH Zurich United States Department of Energy (DOE) University of Chicago University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Institut de Ciencies de l'Espai (IEEC/CSIC) Institut de Fisica d'Altes Energies, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Ludwig-Maximilians Universitat Munchen associated Excellence Cluster Universe University of Michigan, NSF's NOIRLab University of Nottingham Ohio State University OzDES Membership Consortium University of Pennsylvania University of Portsmouth Stanford University United States Department of Energy (DOE) Stanford University University of Sussex Texas AM University United States Department of Energy (DOE) DE-AC02-07CH11359 ; Versión publicada - versión final del editor

Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society. All rights reserved ; We present results of the first dynamical stream fits to the recently discovered Tucana III stream. These fits assume a fixed Milky Way potential and give proper motion predictions, which can be tested with the upcoming Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2). These fits reveal that Tucana III is on an eccentric orbit around the Milky Way and, more interestingly, that Tucana III passed within 15 kpc of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) approximately 75 Myr ago. Given this close passage, we fit the Tucana III stream in the combined presence of the Milky Way and the LMC. We find that the predicted proper motions depend on the assumed mass of the LMC and that the LMC can induce a substantial proper motion perpendicular to the stream track. A detection of this misalignment will directly probe the extent of the LMC's influence on our Galaxy, and has implications for nearly all methods which attempt to constraint the Milky Way potential. Such a measurement will be possible with the upcoming Gaia DR2, allowing for a measurement of the LMC's mass. ; DE and VB acknowledge that the research leading to these results has received funding from the European Research Council under the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP/2007- 2013) / ERC Grant Agreement no. 308024.

Reproduced with permission of AAS ; We present chemical abundance measurements of three stars in the ultrafaint dwarf galaxy Horologium I, a Milky Way satellite discovered by the Dark Energy Survey. Using high-resolution spectroscopic observations, we measure the metallicity of the three stars, as well as abundance ratios of several α-elements, iron-peak elements, and neutron-capture elements. The abundance pattern is relatively consistent among all three stars, which have a low average metallicity of [Fe/H] ∼ -2.6 and are not α-enhanced ([α/Fe] ∼ 0.0). This result is unexpected when compared to other low-metallicity stars in the Galactic halo and other ultrafaint dwarfs and suggests the possibility of a different mechanism for the enrichment of Hor I compared to other satellites. We discuss possible scenarios that could lead to this observed nucleosynthetic signature, including extended star formation, enrichment by a Population III supernova, and or an association with the Large Magellanic Cloud ; Funding for the DES Projects has been provided by the U.S. Department of Energy, the U.S. National Science Foundation, the Ministry of Science and Education of Spain, the Science and Technology Facilities Council of the United Kingdom, the Higher Education Funding Council for England, the National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, the Kavli Institute of Cosmological Physics at the University of Chicago, the Center for Cosmology and Astro-Particle Physics at the Ohio State University, the Mitchell Institute for Fundamental Physics and Astronomy at Texas A&M University, Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos, Fundação Carlos Chagas Filho de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico and the Ministério da Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, and the Collaborating Institutions in the Dark Energy Survey.
