The dwarf spheroidal galaxy Andromeda I

The Astrophysical Journal, 1990
Images of Andromeda I in the visual and near-infrared show a giant branch characteristic of galactic globular clusters of intermediate metallicity. The distance of the galaxy is estimated from the tip of the giant branch to be 790 + or - 60 kpc. The physical dimensions and luminosity are similar to those of the dwarf spheroidal in Sculptor. There is no

The Hubble Space Telescope Survey of M31 Satellite Galaxies. IV. Survey Overview and Lifetime Star Formation Histories

The Astrophysical Journal
From >1000 orbits of HST imaging, we present deep homogeneous resolved star color–magnitude diagrams that reach the oldest main-sequence turnoff and uniformly measured star formation histories (SFHs) of 36 dwarf galaxies (−6 ≥ M _V ≥ −17) associated with

HST Proper Motion of Andromeda III. Another Satellite Coorbiting the M31 Satellite Plane

The Astrophysical Journal
We measure the absolute proper motion of Andromeda III (And III) using Advanced Camera for Surveys/Wide Field Channel and WFPC2 exposures spanning an unprecedented 22 yr time baseline.

Can the New Neutrino Telescopes Reveal the Gravitational Properties of Antimatter?

Advances in Astronomy, 2011
We argue that the hypothesis of the gravitational repulsion between matter and antimatter can be tested at the Ice Cube, a neutrino telescope, recently constructed at the South Pole.

The Molecular Clouds of M31

The Astrophysical Journal
Deep interferometric observations of CO and dust continuum emission are obtained with the Submillimeter Array at 230 GHz to investigate the physical nature of the giant molecular cloud (GMC) population in the Andromeda galaxy (M31).

Rotational Kinematics in the Globular Cluster System of M31: Insights from Bayesian Inference

The Open Journal of Astrophysics
As ancient stellar systems, globular clusters (GCs) offer valuable insights into the dynamical histories of large galaxies. Previous studies of GC populations in the inner and outer regions of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) have revealed intriguing ...
