The obtained velocity distribution shows the presence of two wraps of that halo substructure at the same heliocentric distance as that of the cluster and with well-differentiated mean radial velocities. The most prominent velocity component seems to be associated with the trailing arm of Sagittarius with <v<SUB>r</SUB>> ∼ -130 km s<SUP>-1</SUP>, which is consistent with the velocity of Whiting 1. This result supports that this globular cluster was formed in Sagittarius and recently accreted by the Milky Way. The second component with <v<SUB>r</SUB>> ∼ 120 km s<SUP>-1</SUP> might correspond to the leading arm of Sagittarius, which has been predicted by numerical simulations but with no conclusive observational evidence of its existence presented so far. This detection of the old leading wrap of Sagittarius in the Southern hemisphere may be used to confirm and further constrain the models for its orbit and evolution.STAMPAenArticle10.1093/mnrasl/slx0062-s2.0-85018286587000410063700019https://academic.oup.com/mnrasl/article/467/1/L91/29532612017MNRAS.467L..91CFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICAERC sectors::Physical Sciences and Engineering::PE9 Universe sciences: astro-physics/chemistry/biology; solar systems; stellar, galactic and extragalactic astronomy, planetary systems, cosmology, space science, instrumentation::PE9_6 Stars and stellar systems
