C-19 and Hot, Wide Star Streams
The C-19 star stream has the abundance characteristics of an unusually metal-poor globular cluster but kinematically is uncharacteristically hot and wide for a cluster stream, having a line-of-sight velocity dispersion of 7 ± 2 km s ‑1 and a 1σ width of 240 pc. We show that the tidal dissolution of an old, lower-mass globular cluster in a cold dark
