Ultra-light dark matter in ultra-faint dwarf galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cold Dark Matter (CDM) models struggle to match the observations at galactic scales. The tension can be reduced either by dramatic baryonic feedback effects or by modifying the particle physics of CDM.

The Disruption of the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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.

A MARVEL-ous Study of How Well Galaxy Shapes Reflect Dark Matter Halo Shapes in Cold Dark Matter Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a 3D shape analysis of both dark matter (DM) and stellar matter (SM) in simulated dwarf galaxies to determine whether stellar shape traces DM shape. Using 80 central and satellite dwarf galaxies from three simulation suites (“Marvelous Massive

The mass of dwarf spheroidal galaxies and the missing satellite problem

open access: yes, 2005
We present the results from a suite of N-body simulations of the tidal stripping of two-component dwarf galaxies comprising some stars and dark matter. We show that recent kinematic data from the local group dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies suggests that

Dark satellites and the morphology of dwarf galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
One of the strongest predictions of the LambdaCDM cosmological model is the presence of dark satellites orbiting all types of galaxies. We focus here on the dynamical effects of such satellites on disky dwarf galaxies, and demonstrate that these ...

Going, going, gone dark: Quantifying the scatter in the faintest dwarf galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We predict the stellar mass-halo mass (SMHM) relationship for dwarf galaxies and their satellites residing in halos down to M$_{halo} =$ 10$^7$ M$_{\odot}$ with 10$^4$ M$_{\odot} 10^9$ M$_{\odot}$, the simulated SMHM relationship agrees with literature ...

A global analysis of dark matter signals from 27 dwarf spheroidal galaxies using 11 years of Fermi-LAT observations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2018
We search for a dark matter signal in 11 years of Fermi-LAT gamma-ray data from 27 Milky Way dwarf spheroidal galaxies with spectroscopically measured J-factors.

The Outer Edges of Dwarf Irregular Galaxies: Stars and Gas

open access: yes, 2002
We have in recent years come to view dwarf galaxy evolution in the broader context of the cosmic evolution of large-scale structure. Dwarf galaxies, as the putative building blocks of hierarchical galaxy formation, and also as the most numerous galaxies ...

Harassment Origin for Kinematic Substructures in Dwarf Elliptical Galaxies? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have run high resolution N-body models simulating the encounter of a dwarf galaxy with a bright elliptical galaxy. The dwarf absorbs orbital angular momentum and shows counter-rotating features in the external regions of the galaxy.
