Detection of a Nearby Halo Debris Stream in the WISE and 2MASS Surveys
  Combining the Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer All-Sky Release with the
2MASS Point Source Catalog, we detect a nearby, moderately metal-poor stellar
debris stream spanning 24 degrees across the southern sky. The stream, which we
designate Alpheus, is at an estimated distance of ~1.9 kpc. Its position,
orientation, width, estimated metallicity, and to some extent its distance, are
in approximate agreement with what one might expect of the leading tidal tail
of the southern globular cluster NGC 288.
