Detection of Multiple Phase Space Overdensities of GSE Stars by Orbit Integration
In N-body simulations, nearly radial mergers can form shell-like overdensities in the sky position and phase space (r - v r ) due to the combination of dynamical friction and tidal stripping. The merger event of Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus (GSE) has provided a unique opportunity to study the shells in the phase space. To search for them, we integrate
