Scientific paper

Tidal stripping, galaxy harassment, and 3-body interactions with the supermassive black hole may all eject stars from the Milky Way. These stars comprise a set of intragroup stars that trace the past history of interactions in our neighborhood. Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey we identify candidate red giant intragroup stars using color cuts that are designed to exclude nearby M-dwarfs. We present our technique and preliminary results.
