Evidence for Mass-dependent Evolution of Transitional Dwarf Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
The Astrophysical JournalThe presence of transitional dwarf galaxies in cluster environments supports the hypothesis that infalling star-forming galaxies are transformed into quiescent early-type dwarf galaxies (ETdGs) through environmental effects.

The rotation curves shapes of late-type dwarf galaxies [PDF]
, 2008 We present rotation curves derived for a sample of 62 late-type dwarf galaxies that have been observed as part of the Westerbork HI Survey of Spiral and Irregular Galaxies (WHISP) project.

Tools for Learning—Promoting Reflection for Student Teachers' Development of PCK
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 1902-1922, October 2025.ABSTRACT This paper investigates how the coherent integration of three different tools for reflection during a science methods course can contribute to student teachers' planning and enactment of science teaching, that is, their development of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK).

Wandering globular clusters: the first dwarf galaxies in the universe?
, 2010 In the last decade we witness an advent of new types of dwarf stellar systems in cluding ultra-compact dwarfs, ultra-faint dwarf spheroidals, and exotic globular clusters, breaking the old simple paradigm for dwarf galaxies and globular clusters.

The Magellanic Group and the Seven Dwarfs [PDF]
, 2008 The Magellanic Clouds were the largest members of a group of dwarf galaxies that entered the Milky Way (MW) halo at late times. This group, dominated by the LMC, contained ~4% of the mass of the Milky Way prior to its accretion and tidal disruption, but ~

The Effect of Seductive Details on Knowledge Retention in Physics Videos: A Mixed Methods Study
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 1923-1940, October 2025.ABSTRACT Research reports that interesting but irrelevant information, seductive details, in teaching material can impede learning. In science education, the inclusion of historical narratives in lessons to promote interest has been recommended but may hinder learning.

, 2019 In this work we use structural properties of Milky Way's outer halo ($R_G > 25\,\mathrm{kpc}$) satellites (dwarf spheroidal galaxies, ultra-faint dwarf galaxies and globular clusters) derived from deep, wide-field and homogeneous data, to present ...

Chemodynamic evolution of dwarf galaxies in tidal fields [PDF]
, 2016 The mass-metallicity relation shows that the galaxies with the lowest mass have the lowest metallicities. As most dwarf galaxies are in group environments, interaction effects such as tides could contribute to this trend.

Enrichment of Strontium in Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2019 Light trans-iron elements such as Sr serve as the key to understanding the astrophysical sites of heavy elements. Spectroscopic studies of metal-poor stars have revealed large star-to-star scatters in the ratios of [Sr/Ba], which indicates that there are multiple sites for the production of Sr.
