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.

Morphological transformation of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the Local Group there are three main types of dwarf galaxies: Dwarf Irregulars, Dwarf Spheroidals, and Dwarf Ellipticals. Intermediate/transitional types are present as well.

Bridging the gap between low and high mass dwarf galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
While the dark matter content within the most massive giant and smallest dwarf galaxies has been probed -- spanning a range of over one million in mass -- an important observational gap remains for galaxies of intermediate mass.

Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1994
Dwarf Spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are the faintest baryonic systems recognized as galaxies. Understanding the structure and stellar populations of these systems is critical for the modelling of their formation and evolution, and by extension, for understanding the general problem of galaxy formation ...

Dwarf Galaxies in the Local Volume [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Bulletin, 2018
AbstractThe Updated Nearby Galaxy Catalog (=UNGC) of 1047 Local Volume (=LV) galaxies, situated within a distance of 11 Mpc, contains 870 dwarfs, i.e. 5/6 of the sample. Almost 40% of them have accurate distances measured with Hubble Space Telescope. Most of the LV dwarfs have been observed in HI and Hα emission lines, as well in far-ultraviolet with ...

Local Group Dwarf Galaxies: Nature And Nurture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011

The Fornax Deep Survey (FDS) with VST. VI. Optical properties of the dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Fornax Deep Survey Dwarf galaxy Catalog (FDSDC) includes 564 dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster and the in-falling Fornax A subgroup. We use the FDSDC galaxies for statistical analysis of the structural and stellar population differences in the ...

AGN in dwarf galaxies: frequency, triggering processes and the plausibility of AGN feedback [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2019
While active galactic nuclei (AGN) are considered to be key drivers of the evolution of massive galaxies, their potentially significant role in the dwarf-galaxy regime (M* < 109 M⊙) remains largely unexplored. We combine optical and infrared data, from
