A Universal SFDM Halo Mass for the Andromeda and Milky Way's dSphs? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Dwarf spheroidal galaxies are the most common type of galaxies, and are the most dark matter dominated objects in the Universe. Therefore, they are ideal laboratories to test any dark matter model. The Bose-Einstein condensate/scalar field dark matter model considers that the dark matter is composed by spinless-ultra-light particles which can be ...

Search for annihilating Dark Matter towards dwarf galaxies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The standard model of cosmology indicates that approximately 27% of the energy density of the Universe is in the form of dark matter. The nature of dark matter is an open question in modern physics.

Relieving Tensions Related to the Dark Matter Interpretation of the Fermi-LAT Data

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
Recently, many studies indicate that the GeV gamma ray excess signal from the central Milky Way can be best explained by ∼40–50 GeV dark matter annihilating via the b b ¯ channel.

The Dependence of Iron-rich Metal-poor Star Occurrence on Galactic Environment Supports an Origin in Thermonuclear Supernova Nucleosynthesis

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
It has been suggested that a class of chemically peculiar metal-poor stars called iron-rich metal-poor (IRMP) stars formed from molecular cores with metal contents dominated by thermonuclear supernova nucleosynthesis.

A Study of Abundance Patterns in the Sextans and Sculptor Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In this work, we employ a multicomponent decomposition model to study the Sextans and Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxies, which have distinct evolutionary histories.

Young Globular Clusters and Dwarf Spheroidals [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Most of the globular clusters in the main body of the Galactic halo were formed almost simultaneously. However, globular cluster formation in dwarf spheroidal galaxies appears to have extended over a significant fraction of a Hubble time. This suggests that the factors which suppressed late-time formation of globulars in the main body of the Galactic ...

Galaxias Enanas del Grupo Local

open access: yesMomento, 2009
The satellite galaxies of the Milky Way are very important both for the studies of the formation and evolution of galaxies and for the research on the dark matter problem. In the present review paper some structural properties of the Local Group, as well

An Analytical Galactic Chemical Evolution Model with Gas Inflow and a Terminal Wind

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a new analytical galactic chemical evolution (GCE) model with gas inflow, internally caused outflow, and extra gas loss after a period of time. The latter mimics the ram pressure stripping of a dwarf satellite galaxy near the pericenter of its

Iron-rich Metal-poor Stars and the Astrophysics of Thermonuclear Events Observationally Classified as Type Ia Supernovae. I. Establishing the Connection

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The progenitor systems and explosion mechanisms responsible for the thermonuclear events observationally classified as Type Ia supernovae are uncertain and difficult to uniquely constrain using traditional observations of Type Ia supernova host galaxies,

Interaction between the IGM and a dwarf galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Dwarf Galaxies are the most common objects in the Universe and are believed to contain large amounts of dark matter. There are mainly three morphologic types of dwarf galaxies: dwarf ellipticals, dwarf spheroidals and dwarf irregulars. Dwarf irregular galaxies are particularly interesting in dwarf galaxy evolution, since dwarf spheroidal predecessors ...
