The Dwarf Galaxy Population of the Dorado group down to Mv=-11 [PDF]
, 2000 We present V and I CCD photometry of suspected low-surface brightness dwarf galaxies detected in a survey covering ~2.4 deg^2 around the central region of the Dorado group of galaxies.

HST UV Spectroscopy of the Dwarf Starburst Galaxy Pox 186
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Studying the galaxies responsible for reionization is often conducted through local reionization-era analogs; however, many of these local analogs are too massive to be representative of the low-mass star-forming galaxies that are thought to play a ...

On the dynamics of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy [PDF]
Monthly 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.

The cores of dwarf galaxy haloes [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1996 We use N-body simulations to examine the effects of mass outflows on the density profiles of cold dark matter (CDM) halos surrounding dwarf galaxies. In particular, we investigate the consequences of supernova-driven winds that expel a large fraction of the baryonic component from a dwarf galaxy disk after a vigorous episode of star formation.

Overmassive Black Holes in Dwarf Galaxies Out to z ∼ 0.9 in the VIPERS Survey
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are thought to originate from early universe seed black holes of mass M _BH ∼ 10 ^2 –10 ^5 M _⊙ and grown through cosmic time. Such seeds could be powering the active galactic nuclei (AGN) found in today’s dwarf galaxies.

Star formation histories of dwarf galaxies in the FIRE simulations: dependence on mass and Local Group environment [PDF]
, 2019 We study star formation histories (SFHs) of $\simeq500$ dwarf galaxies (stellar mass $M_\ast = 10^5 - 10^9\,M_\odot$) from FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulations.

The Astrophysical JournalWe 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 ...

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We present James Webb Space Telescope observations of M 4—the closest globular cluster—that probe the lower Main Sequence down to the hydrogen‐burning limit. The unveiled stellar sequence reaches much fainter luminosities than previously possible, revealing a few extremely red objects that are consistent with brown dwarfs as cool as Teff∼1000K$

Visionaries and Crackpots, Maniacs and Saints: Existential Risk and the Politics of Longtermism
Ratio, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite advancing strong claims about our collective priorities, longtermism has received little attention in debates in political philosophy. I first provide an account of longtermism that highlights the way it departs from established work on intergenerational justice.
