The SAGA Survey will spectroscopically identify satellite galaxies brighter than Mr = -12.3 around one hundred Milky Way analogs at z 0.01. We recently published our Stage II data release, which included 127 satellites around 36 hosts. The data quadruple the sample size presented in 2017 and significantly increases spectroscopic coverage for very low-redshift galaxies with magnitudes 17 < r < 21 around SAGA hosts, creating a unique data set that places the Local Group in a wider context. I will discuss results from SAGA Stage II on the quenched fraction of satellites, luminosity functions, radial distributions and more, comparing these both to the Milky Way itself and predictions from simulation. |
