Spectroscopy of bright QUEST RR Lyrae stars
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Using a sample of 43 bright (V<16.1, distance <13kpc) RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) from the QUasar Equatorial Survey with spectroscopic radial velocities and metallicities, we find that several separate halo substructures contribute to the Virgo overdensity (VOD).
Description
While there is little evidence of a halo substructure in the spatial distribution of these stars, their distribution in radial velocity reveals two moving groups. These results are reinforced when the sample is combined with a sample of blue horizontal branch stars that were identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, and the combined sample provides evidence for one additional moving group.
