On the dynamics of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1995
We use numerical simulations to test the feasibility of the suggestion by Ibata et al. (1994) that the excess population of stars which they discovered in the Sagittarius region may be the disrupted remains of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy. We find that a Fornax-like model for the pre-disruption system can indeed reproduce the data.

ANGULAR MOMENTUM OF DWARF GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2016
ABSTRACT We present measurements of baryonic mass and specific angular momentum (sAM) in 14 rotating dwarf Irregular (dIrr) galaxies from the LITTLE THINGS sample.

Near IR imaging of Centaurus group dwarf elliptical galaxies

open access: yes, 2016
Detailed studies of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group have revealed an amazing diversity in their star formation histories. Young and intermediate-age stellar populations are observed in some gas-poor dwarf ellipticals, like Fornax and Carina, where ...

Dwarfs in Void Environments (DIVE): The Stellar Kinematics of Void Dwarf Galaxies Using the Keck Cosmic Web Imager

open access: yesThe 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

Environment Matters: Predicted Differences in the Stellar Mass–Halo Mass Relation and History of Star Formation for Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We are entering an era in which we will be able to detect and characterize hundreds of dwarf galaxies within the Local Volume. It is already known that a strong dichotomy exists in the gas content and star formation properties of field dwarf galaxies ...

Target Selection and Sample Characterization for the DESI LOW-Z Secondary Target Program

open access: yesThe 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.

Dwarf spheroidal galaxies: Keystones of galaxy evolution [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1994
Dwarf spheroidal galaxies are the most insignificant extragalactic stellar systems in terms of their visibility, but potentially very significant in terms of their role in the formation and evolution of much more luminous galaxies. We discuss the present observational data and their implications for theories of the formation and evolution of both dwarf

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

Long Period Variables in Local Group Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this work the results are presented of an extensive search for Long Period Variables stars (LPVs) in a sample of Local Group irregular dwarf galaxies.

Dwarf elliptical galaxies: United and divided

open access: yes, 2015
Although of humble appearance and often overlooked because of their modest physical sizes and low star densities, dwarf elliptical (dE) galaxies revealed themselves as the most common type of galaxies to exist in the Universe today.
