THE METALLICITY OF VOID DWARF GALAXIES [PDF]
The current Lambda CDM cosmological model predicts that galaxy evolution proceeds more slowly in lower density environments, suggesting that voids are a prime location to search for relatively pristine galaxies that are representative of the building blocks of early massive galaxies.

Dwarf Galaxies with the Highest Concentration Are Not Thicker than Ordinary Dwarf Galaxies
The formation mechanism of high-concentration dwarf galaxies is still a mystery. We perform a comparative study of the intrinsic shape of nearby low-mass galaxies with different stellar concentration.

Dwarf Galaxies and Cluster Environments [PDF]
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

Star Forming Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]
Star forming dwarf galaxies (SFDGs) have a high gas content and low metallicities, reminiscent of the basic entities in hierarchical galaxy formation scenarios. In the young universe they probably also played a major role in the cosmic reionization. Their abundant presence in the local volume and their youthful character make them ideal objects for ...

MaNGA AGN dwarf galaxies (MAD) [PDF]
Context. Feedback from an active galactic nucleus (AGN) is one of the most important mechanisms in galaxy evolution. This phenomenon is usually found in massive galaxies and is known to regulate star formation. Although dwarf galaxies are assumed to be regulated by supernova feedback, recent studies have offered evidence to support the presence of AGN ...

We review the observational evidences for tidal dwarf galaxies, a class of small galaxies formed out of the tidal debris of collisions between massive galaxies. Tidal dwarfs are found far from the interacting parent galaxies, associated with massive clouds of atomic hydrogen located at the tip of long tidal tails.

The Pristine dwarf galaxy survey–V. The edges of the dwarf galaxy Hercules
ABSTRACT We present a new spectroscopic study of 175 stars in the vicinity of the dwarf galaxy Hercules (d ∼ 132 kpc) with data from the Anglo-Australian Telescope and its AAOmega spectrograph together with the Two Degree Field multi-object system to solve the conundrum that whether Hercules is tidally disrupting.

An Overview of the Dwarf Galaxy Survey [PDF]
The Dwarf Galaxy Survey (DGS) program is studying low-metallicity galaxies using 230h of far-infrared (FIR) and submillimetre (submm) photometric and spectroscopic observations of the Herschel Space Observatory and draws to this a rich database of a wide range of wavelengths tracing the dust, gas and stars.
