The Relationship between Slope and Luminosity [PDF]
Kirkuk Journal of Science, 2010 In this study, a sample of galaxies has been adopted. It consists of 112 elliptical galaxies, among them were 56 dwarf elliptical galaxies, which belong to virgo cluster, 37 normal galaxies and 19 bright galaxies. Also, surface brightness profiles fitted

Satellites and haloes of dwarf galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2012 We study the abundance of satellite galaxies as a function of primary stellar mass using the SDSS/DR7 spectroscopic catalogue. In contrast with previous studies, which focussed mainly on bright primaries, our central galaxies span a wide range of stellar mass, 10^7.5 < M_*^pri/M_sun < 10^11, from dwarfs to central cluster galaxies.

Two Candidates for Dual AGN in Dwarf-dwarf Galaxy Mergers
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Dual active galactic nuclei (DAGN) are important for understanding galaxy-merger-triggered fueling of black holes and the hierarchical growth of structures.

The Interstellar Medium of Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]
Galaxies, 2022 Dwarf galaxies are by far the most numerous galaxies in the Universe, showing properties that are quite different from those of their larger and more luminous cousins. This review focuses on the physical and chemical properties of the interstellar medium of those dwarfs that are known to host significant amounts of gas and dust. The neutral and ionized

Globular Clusters and the Halos of Dwarf Galaxies
Galaxies, 2017 Many dwarf galaxies have disproportionately rich globular cluster (GC) systems for their luminosities. Moreover, the GCs tend to be preferentially associated with the most metal-poor stellar populations in their parent galaxies, making them attractive ...

Characteristic size and mass of galaxies in the Bose–Einstein condensate dark matter model
Physics Letters B, 2016 We study the characteristic length scale of galactic halos in the Bose–Einstein condensate (or scalar field) dark matter model. Considering the evolution of the density perturbation we show that the average background matter density determines the ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Dwarf galaxies located in extremely underdense cosmic voids are excellent test beds for disentangling the effects of large-scale environments on galaxy formation and evolution. We present the first results of the Dwarfs in Void Environments Survey, which

Galaxy threshing and the formation of ultra-compact dwarf galaxies [PDF]
, 2001 Recent spectroscopic and morphological observational studies of galaxies around NGC 1399 in the Fornax Cluster (Drinkwater et al. 2000b) have discovered several `ultra-compact dwarf' galaxies with intrinsic sizes of $\sim$ 100 pc and absolute $B$ band ...
