Joint Modeling of GD-1 and C-19 as Old Streams

The episode discusses a paper titled "Joint Modeling of GD-1 and C-19 as Old Streams," which uses two stellar streams to study our galaxy's dark matter halo. The researchers found that the data matches predictions from the Cold Dark Matter model, providing strong evidence for this cosmological model. They also estimated the original mass of star clusters within these streams.
