Mutual information analysis of TNG50 simulations shows gravitational potential and total energy retain merger mass and infall time information longest, while radial velocity loses it within ~5 Gyr, with washout depending on radius, merger age, and mass.
A large sample of blue horizontal-branch stars reveals that the Milky Way halo anisotropy increases from the center, stays radially dominated after removing merger debris, and shows older stars on colder, less radial orbits in the inner regions.
Synthetic stellar population models show TRGB luminosity varies by at most 0.028 mag from typical changes in alpha enhancement, age, and helium at fixed metallicity, confirming its robustness as a distance indicator.
Globular cluster mass fractions, in-situ fractions, metallicity spreads, and spatial profiles in simulated compact galaxies can identify massive relic analogs with early assembly histories.
GaiaNIR retains sensitivity to extended dark matter halos in globular clusters under strong extinction while Gaia degrades, enabling studies in obscured regions.
Photometric metallicities from DECam identify 213 Jet stream candidates and detect fanning in the stream morphology.
New abundance measurements confirm two stars as r-II and one as borderline r-I, with r-process material older than 10 Gyr and possible links to the Thamnos structure.
