The orbital histories of Magellanic satellites using Gaia DR2 proper motions

E Patel, N Kallivayalil… - The Astrophysical …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
With the release of Gaia DR2, it is now possible to measure the proper motions (PMs) of the
lowest-mass, ultrafaint satellite galaxies in the Milky Way's (MW) halo for the first time. Many …

Evidence for an intermediate-mass Milky Way from Gaia DR2 halo globular cluster motions

LL Watkins, RP van der Marel, ST Sohn… - The Astrophysical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
We estimate the mass of the Milky Way (MW) within 21.1 kpc using the kinematics of halo
globular clusters (GCs) determined by Gaia. The second Gaia data release (DR2) contained …
