Dwarf Galaxies and Cluster Environments
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2018 AbstractWe report an investigation of the properties of dwarf galaxies (Mr < -15) inside 26 clusters at z = 0.15 – 0.25, using the X-ray data from the Chandra archive, and optical images taken with Subaru Suprime-Cam. Our results include: 1. Investigation of the dwarf galaxy density distribution is sensitive to the background galaxies and the choice

A Solar Analog Model for Decrease in Far Ultraviolet Irradiance Under a Grand Minimum
Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Solar analog field stars having a range of magnetic activity can provide an estimate of solar spectral irradiance (SSI) variability relevant to understanding the Sun's influence on terrestrial climate. This approach is particularly useful for far ultraviolet (FUV) irradiance that cannot be observed from the Earth surface.

Target Selection and Sample Characterization for the DESI LOW-Z Secondary Target Program
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We introduce the DESI LOW- Z Secondary Target Survey, which combines the wide-area capabilities of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) with an efficient, low-redshift target selection method.

The ORCA‐TWIN qCMOS Experiment I. Science Case and Commissioning at Calar Alto Observatory
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 7, August 2026.ABSTRACT We describe a pilot study to explore a new generation of fast and low noise CMOS image sensors for time domain astronomy, using two remote telescopes with a baseline of 1635 km. The experiment involves direct imaging with novel qCMOS image sensor technology that combines fast readout with sub‐electron readout noise.

The Disruption of the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 1995 Numerical simulations of dwarf spheroidal galaxies undergoing several close encounters with the Milky Way are described. By comparing our models to observed properties of the recently discovered dwarf galaxy in Sagittarius (Sgr), we discuss implications of our results for the formation and evolution of the Milky Way system.

The Pristine dwarf galaxy survey – IV. Probing the outskirts of the dwarf galaxy Boötes I
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 ABSTRACT We present a new spectroscopic study of the dwarf galaxy Boötes I (Boo I) with data from the Anglo-Australian Telescope and its AAOmega spectrograph together with the Two Degree Field multi-object system. We observed 36 high-probability Boo I stars selected using Gaia Early Data Release 3 proper motions and photometric ...

Tidal Dwarf Galaxies and Missing Baryons
Advances in Astronomy, 2010 Tidal dwarf galaxies form during the interaction, collision, or merger of massive spiral galaxies. They can resemble “normal” dwarf galaxies in terms of mass, size, and become dwarf satellites orbiting around their massive progenitor.

Repeating Nuclear Transients From Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 5, June 2026.ABSTRACT Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A subset of these transients, with recurrence timescales of months‐to‐years, have been explained as accretion flares from the repeated tidal stripping of a star by an ...

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.Paradigm shift: PCR‐free methods reveal 6–15‐fold higher arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal abundance than metabarcoding, exposing systematic underestimation across decades of research. Predictive power: AM fungal abundance serves as a community‐level trait that predicts crop yield under drought conditions.

Dust in Nearby DWARF Galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1994 The aim of the present paper is to look for the gas-to-dust ratio in different types of galaxies and for a correlation between this ratio and the metallicity in dwarf galaxies. The recent compilation of data on nearby galaxies by Schmidt & Boller (1992, hereinafter SB) including HI and dust ...
