CADIS has seen the Virgo overdensity and parts of the Monoceros and ‘ Orphan ’ streams in retrospect
We reanalyze deep star counts in five CADIS fields. The data are presented as vertical density distributions of stars perpendicular to the Galactic plane. In three fields the profiles are consistent with each other, while in two fields significant overdensities of stars are found. The overdensity in one field can be associated with the Virgo overdensity which can be traced right into the disk o...
متن کاملCrosstalk Analysis of New CCDs of Suprime-Cam
The detectors of Suprime-Cam were replaced in 2008/07 to full-depleted back illuminated CCDs [1]. The new CCDs show a crosstalk features between channels (Figure 1 top). Such crosstalk was reported in multichannel CCDs in other observatories [2,3,4,5,6]. In Suprime-Cam, one of the three crosstalk shadows moves parallel to the source. Default dithering sequence of Suprime-Cam does not change the...
متن کاملSubaru Suprime-Cam Weak Lensing Survey over 33 deg
Under the currently popular CDM model, mass plays the major role in evolution of large scale structure of the universe. In order to examine the paradigm based on observations, it would be ideal to use purely mass selected object catalog. Weak lensing surveys enable a blind search of cluster scale objects, and thus could provide such catalogs. We are working on a weak lensing survey using Subaru...
متن کاملA Subaru/suprime-cam Survey of M31’s Spheroid along the South-east Minor Axis
We have used Suprime-Cam on the Subaru Telescope to conduct a V and I-band imaging survey of fields sampling the spheroid of the Andromeda galaxy along its south-east minor axis. Our photometric data are deep enough to resolve stars down to the red clump. Based on a large and reliable sample of red giant stars available from this deep wide-field imager, we have derived metallicity distributions...
متن کاملA Suprime - Cam study of the stellar population of Ursa Major I dwarf spheroidal galaxy ⋆
We present deep and wide V, I CCD photometry of Ursa Major I (UMa I) dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) in Local Group. The images of the galaxy were taken by Subaru/Suprime-Cam wide field camera, covering a field of 34 ′ × 27 ′ located at the centre of the galaxy. Colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) of the UMa I dSph shows a steep and narrow red giant branch (RGB), blue and red horizontal branch (HB), ...
