RV of 111 Galactic halo stars in Virgo

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present multi-slit radial velocity measurements for 111 stars in the direction of the Virgo Stellar Stream (VSS).

Description

The stars were photometrically selected to be probable main-sequence stars in the Galactic halo. When compared with the radial velocity distribution expected for the halo of the Milky Way, as well as the distribution seen in a control field, we observe a significant excess of negative velocity stars in the field, which can likely be attributed to the presence of a stellar stream.
