Hello Crunchers!

"A Spatial Characterization of the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy Tidal Tails"

This is the title of a paper using results from Milkyway@home, and has been accepted for publication in The Astronomical Journal! You can find the preprint (unofficial pre-published version) on ArXiv (http://arxiv.org/abs/1304.1476).

This paper analyzes the tidal debris of the Sagittarius dwarf Galaxy, and discusses the results in the context of other published papers. For background information, please see our Science Page

Thanks to all of our Milkyway@home crunchers who made this paper possible, especially David Glogau, The Marvin Clan, and the Dudley Observatory for their significant donations (you've been thanked in the paper, too!*).

This is just the first in what we hope will be a long string of Milkyway@home astronomy publications. We're working on the next publications right now!

Cheers,
Matthew N.

*We'll contact you personally with more information as the paper gets closer to its official publication date.

Congratulations!
